Hi all,

My friend's got a PS3 on which the Blu-Ray drive does not seem to be working.

Any disc you put in - The system doesn't pick it up.

Any ideas?

Thanks
 
Could be the Laser dead, but i hear that sometimes firmware can cause the problem. Would be best to call Sony Customer service and they will talk him through it, if not search the net for a possible solution if its a firmware problem. If its out of warranty the BD drive can be purchased for about £40 online, probably cheaper than a repair.
 
I had that a couple of weeks ago - wasnt reading anything but was waking up when I put a disc in - returned it to Sony for a drive repair/swap...

Took 5days to get it back to me :D

ps3ud0 :cool:
