noooo my PS3 broke after the new update...

Today, I turned on my PS3 and It asked me to plug in the controller through the USB Cable (Which is odd, because whenI turn on my PS3, it goes straight to the XMB), after that, I had to put in the language, Date, etc. After that, I was gonna log on to my PSN account, and it says "Sign Up for Playstation@Network", Kinda wierd because, usually I set it to automatically Log in, and whenever I turn on my PS3, It logs in. So, I just logged onto my account by going through the Playstation@network. After I logged in, I rebooted up the PS3, and wow it asks me to plug in the controller though the USB Cable AGAIN, and when I looked over to the Friends bar, says "Sign up for Playstation@Network". It looks like the Playstation3 is screwed. Any help? Should I just set the whole PS3 to default?

arrrgh! nooooo!

i dont know whether to do it? is 1.9 worth it???

ok...you guys...he says it happens when he turns he ps3 on...we all know that you have to plug it in during the update. He's already updated, and now its acting like it erases his data on startup...

anyway, did you call Sony?

wait... i'm pretty sure i'm wrong on this but i think its a virus...

ever since i updated my ps3 to 1.9, ive had problems connecting through wifi, i cant get through more than 2 minutes of a game of rfom online without a disconnect, and i have 100% signal strength

wait... i'm pretty sure i'm wrong on this but i think its a virus...

Me too :(

did you accept the Terms of Service (or Agreement) before the install?

Did anything happen during install??

Something?

This happened to me a while back, I called sony and they had me format the hard drive. Havn't had any problems since.

My PS3 broke yesterday!!! I turned on my PS3 and loaded GTA4 like I have so many times since it came out and while it was loading, the screen went black, but I can still hear the music. The music eventually stops and screen stays black and won't load. I tried other games i.e. NHL08 and same problem, game starts up, but when it starts to load, it freezes the screen. DVD's have stopped working too. I called SONY, and because its out of warranty, they want another $150 for a new one. I don't know about you, but that's B***S***! I bought my PS3 for $500 in early December of 2006. It didnt even last me a year and a half and Sony's only solution is to "SEND US MORE MONEY!" and we'll only give you a limited 90 day warranty on the new one. So what?! it can break again in another year, and now i'm out $650!!! Sony's customer service is garbage and only solution they offer is 'throw more money at the problem'. Sony should offer more options rather than just buy a new one. But you know what, people do it. They put up with it and fork out the money and Sony is happy. Wel, I grew up in a time, that if its broke, FIX IT! F*** Sony and F*** their piece of crap console!!
