Just this minute was playing cod4. hit the middle button to quit game to take to normal screen if no disc is in(sorry forgot what its called). then i put in pes 2008. blue screen with umpteen different languages came up along the lines of "system error could not read, press x to restore default setting"

anyone got a clue what its on?

always thought there was something dodgy bout this ps3 as on the 2nd day i owned it, when turned on it would just show the black screen. after an hour or so of turning on and off and other different things it was working,.

cheers :confused:
