hi guys aqnd gals,
well i had 2 working ps3's,now none!!!
ps3 number 1 was constantly freezing with blackops,its on 3.66 fw(newest).i dissasembled and cleaned the laser with a cotton bud(Q-tip for the american brothers,lol)
now the laser wont read anything at all!!
ps3 number 2 had faulty laser,so i replaced and it was working.now when i power it on,i get the blue flashing light,im sure it thinks disc is still in drive..there isnt one.
i have replaced the disc sensor,and still the same.i checked to see if gears were aligned correctly,and they are..
im stumped,so any info will be gratefully recieved.im sick of these ps3's,thank goodness i still got my 360
help!!!!!

Re: help!!!!!
