@ Silent: Why you suggesting to deactivate PSN account, you know you can use same ID in a new console right.

 

Yea..Thats y you have to deactivate...

It can be used in only 2 PS3's...If you dont deactivate and the PS3 dies , your account will be stuck in that PS3 forever..

 

If its a shared account then you cant use that account on the new ps3...

How to Deactivate a PlayStation®3 System

You can only deactivate your PlayStation®3 system from PlayStation®Network using your PS3™ system. You cannot deactivate it using a PSP (PlayStation®Portable) system or PC.

Can anyone suggest a reliable and good service center in Chennai (Non-Sony is fine) who can take a look at the machine ? Its an EU 40GB PS3 fat (2007 model).

 

You could take it to Ritchie Street. Ask for Moosa Games Center, and people will give you directions. They offer reliable service there.

So, guys, GTAV got delivered yesterday and it works completely fine on my PS3.... :ko: Looks like the problem I was facing was with games downloaded from the PS Store to the HDD..... I remember playing Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (Disc version) a few days ago and I recollect now that it never crashed as well....

 

I'm kinda confused now.... :( And there's Beyond: Two Souls that I've pre-ordered as well.... :panic:

Bro..Use it for a few days...

If its YLOD then it'll eventually happen...After i got the problem i could play few games and could'nt play few...

Anywayz GTA does take lot of processing power , so if its working fine , it may not be overheating...

 

If it happens again few time , just deactivate all acounts and get it replaced..

Since yours is phat PS3 , it is bound to die....

Yeah, I guess you are right..... :( It crashed while GTAV as well now..... But it's not as frequent as the other games... I mean, when I start GTAV, I can play it for at least 2-3 hours without any problems...

 

Should I cancel my Beyond: Two Souls pre-order? Or should I get it anyways? I'll be able to replace the PS3 only after Decemeber.... :(

I was facing the same problem....it's kinda weird....if i keep it off for couple of days then start AC 3 then during the initial screen (boot screen) it'll shut down for the first time...but if i restart it, it'll again start without any problem....agreed i dont stretch the gaming bit for more than 3 hours...but if i play everyday it'll not give any problem....i know it'll die sooner/later but the question is when???

Keep your fingers crossed and get the game...Hopefully , it'll live till you complete Beyond..

It took around 2 or 3 months for my PS3 to die..Infact it dint die..If i kept trying it used to switch on and i could play for 5 mins or so...

It never works

It asks to use the system in order to deactivate

It does,google PC psn deactivate.

The whole reason 5 activation changed to 2 was the addition of PC deactivate.

My phat 20gb ps3 just ylod :/

Is there any way I can create a backup of data(save files, music) on the hdd using my laptop? :/

Also can I install this hdd on a slim ps3?

 

Not sure if you can back up using your laptop..U cant backup games...Try it and check if you can back up other media...

 

U can use same hdd for slim and superslim...

I think even fo PS4..

on pc you can deactivate all systems in one go , if you want to deactivate particular ps3 system you can only do on console. i did recently after my ps3 got fried :l
