hello and sorry if its in the wrong section.. i want to ask about my faulty ps3. my ps3 suddenly become black screen when i play a game. then i try to turn it on again but it cannot be started and only showing black screen. so i sent it to a game shop and they said that my ps3's cpu is broken and cannot be fix.. so the question is where can i buy cpu spare part and how can i fix it

Worse case scenario is get an YLOD unit for a bargain... <-- Thats a long shot. Most probably their cpu is fried too.
Did you go to Sony Service Centre for a service quote before?


I just bought an PS3 Super Slim MY set (with Sony Malaysia 12 months warranty) from evojinx for RM950 <-- He still have stocks, just call him.

Just want to know sifus, any tips for a newb to take care a PS3? I noticed that the Super Slim can get hotter than a Pentium (Year 2010) laptop just by updating the firmware 4.21 --> 4.31 and installing Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 into the HDD...

But the post didn't mention about the LED light of the controller.

I should have got myself a white controller when I bought my PS3 instead of black at the first place. Buat malu. doh.gif

Hi,
Anyone open their PS3 Super Slim before? I wanted to blow off dust accumulated in the PS3.
I saw hexagon screws with a bulge on the center.
Where do I get the screw driver for it?

I own a PS Vita and also a PC gamer. I am planning to buy a PS3 to play the exclusive titles like God of War, infamous & MGS (saga). The current market price for PS3 super slim 500GB is quite high for me (at sony store ~RM1200) which I think too expensive.
Should I go for used PS3 slim instead or just go for PS3 Super Slim? How is the reliability of Super Slim?

I believe you can get PS3 Super Slim 500GB for RM900, official Malaysia set from PBBseller or Heavyarm. It's only Sony Malaysia that thinks that their ancient products are worth RM1200...

Guyz i need help
I download God of War Ascension on PSN and when i try to install the game i always get the error "corrupted data"..
This is my third try and the download is about 34g...
So guys any solution?

Not sure but you should consider complaining to TMNut. My line has been unstable for 4 days with no solution. All PSN downloads will get stuck at 100% and have to redownload everything and til today download still fail.

Make sure you complain every one hour.

Call 100 today. Tell TMNut their equipment is causing your devices to get DNS errors.

Hello everyone, need to ask whether any of you here experienced this issue before and how to fix it:

I am 130+ hours in a game when suddenly after I loaded my saved file the controller's square, triangle, start, and R1 buttons are not working at all except during battles. When out in the field, none of these buttons work which means I cannot open any menu at all. I cannot even pause the game. How to continue playing when the main game menu cannot be opened? (Cannot change equipment, change members, use items, use magic, etc)

However during battle and in other games, they work just fine.
I even tried loading a new game but still same problem.
Tried unplugging the PS3 still same issue.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.  notworthy.gif  Thanks in advance.

Haha thanks I found that too when I tried googling around.
Not working at all...why now? After 130+ hours.. cry.gif

Should I really get another controller or get another copy of the game?

I read somewhere that Sleeping Dogs had the same problem too with some gamers..such weird problem. Some bug?

You tried using a wire to connect to the PS3?
