Re: PS3 RESTORE

Sounds like your hdd has become corrupted/died

 

 

you can try to "revive" the hdd by putting it in a PC and running a particular scan disk program that drudgingly scans your hard drive for errors and attempts to fix them. Its a long process but it works, especially for older hard drives.

 

If the program runs and it fixes all the errors, then pop it into the PS3 and see if it'll work...... if it gets stuck again, then you'll have to buy a new hdd
