GeneralWar Posted October 5, 2008 Report Posted October 5, 2008 I think u have to call sony, its called the blinking red light of death, hope u have a warranty, try playstation.com forums, that might help a little. Quote
Neoblackhound Posted October 5, 2008 Report Posted October 5, 2008 Umm yea that happened to me call sony tell them whats happening and then if your warranty is still there they will send you a box then you send your ps3 then they either repair or send you a new one. Quote
CDBS14 Posted October 5, 2008 Report Posted October 5, 2008 if you dont have the warranty they fix it for 80 bucks. Quote

Neoblackhound Posted October 6, 2008 Report Posted October 6, 2008 UCLaownz ]if they have to send me a new ps3 will i be able to get my saved data back from the broken one? Nope I lost 1000s of family pics that I was gonna transfer to a flash drive.They also told me they couldn't save the data on it so whatever your cuzn has or did cdbs its different because me and dub didn't get this lower price or them saving our data.

brown_mustang Posted October 6, 2008 Report Posted October 6, 2008 They couldn't transfer my data, and it would have cost me $150 until they found out that it was a software problem and I got a new one for free. (Out of warranty) Quote
Chaka Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 Just tell'em that its scratching your disc in a circular motion,then they will apologize and tell you to send it in and fix it for free.They will also tell you where to send your so called scratched disc for a new one.Dont worry about that part.
