I tried all the tricks (except reformatting), and I booted up in LInux and it seems like it just doesn't read anything with the disc drive anymore. This is very disappointing, and I have a feeling it's going to cost me money. |

I just tried booting into Linux, and then I went back to boot-game-os and now it works. So either my PS3 is dying or I tricked it into reading discs again. |

But the disc didn't show up at all, which makes me think this is more of a software issue than the actual disc drive reading the disc. Maybe not... either way I just hope it's ok now. I don't want to lose my Linux and PS2 BC for one of the newer PS3s. |

I see this issue happen a lot with PS3. My Dad buys PS3's off the internet and fixes them and resells them, usually it's just a simple Blu-ray drive swap. I think he usually spends $80 to buy a new Blu-ray drive. You could try fixing it yourself |

This happened to a friend of mine. Its the PS3's version of RRoD. But clearly not as big of a problem |

Ha..... I know. Two of my 3 xbox 360s by me, and one of ours by Hax's moms house. Hax's console was in a bad position, and they did just do that Rock Band or Guitar Hero achievement where you play 60 songs or something, and they took a break overnight and had it paused overnight... That's a bad move right there. no YLOD yet... but it did freeze when trying to play Uncharted 2 yesterday, then it was fine. Edited by CapwnD, Oct 22 2009, 09:11 AM.
