U can download the fw via pc first and then transfer it to thumbdrive..before that u need to structure ur thumbdrive folders like this :

After u done that , plug the thumbdrive to PS3 usb..Select System Update > Via Media Storage > Update V2.60 > Yes...

Hi,

What with all the PS3 models that is available in the market right now, few questions come to mind that seems not addressed that i think should be  pinned or added to the FAQs:

1. you buy malaysia model, you did not register online within the 30 day purchase period, can you still claim FREE warranty/service within the 1 year period?
2. you buy malaysia model, it's over 1 year already, theoretically can send to local sony service center for repairs but you will be charged correct?
3. you buy other region models, there is definitely no FREE warranty/service from local sony service center BUT, can they still do the repairs for a price?
4. any other better advises for when there is problem with a non-local set?
*
1. Yes , u can register the warranty at any time in that year , but when reg. the warranty via online , you must enter the actual date of purchase ( the day u bought the system ) & do keep the receipt..

2. After the warranty expired ( after 1 year ) , U can still send the system to Sony Malaysia for repairs or service , but u will be charged ( parts & labour )..

3. Sony Malaysia will accept Malaysia Edition PS3 only...Others region PS3 nope.

4. Send to reputable sellers which provides repair and services or Claim warranty from the system origins..Example : SG set send to Sony Singapore

Happy Gaming..
