Unplug it, plug it back in. This should reset it If that doesn't work, hope you took a warranty out on it.

Thats why the warranty is here. You either go to the gamestore if you bought the warranty for it or you call Sony and ask them to send another one for you.

did you turn it of using the button on the back? cause that can fry the circets. Might have been a power surge in the electrical network too. This is something that can happen under lightning storms or when big factorys starts and stops their production and has a wide effect across 10s of km.

Well, thats good. I think your just one of the unlucky ones, we should be realy happy that there has been so few problems with the PS3. 5 months after the 360 launch the board was flooded with threads about 360's dying and the red ring of death:P

The label on my PS3 says it was manufactured in December and i got it in January hasnt been giving me any problems at all.

I hope it stays that way. In case it doesnt i have the reciept in the PS3 box so i can call Sony and send it back.
