PS3 Slim Died! Never Fear! PS3 Hard Reset Is Here!


Had a very bad day yesterday when my PS3 Slim decided to go beserk and not work.  Nothing would start, the main menu would freeze, haven't a clue on what happened to cause it (other than the fact I was downloading an add-on in the background for Batman Arkham Asylum).  Anyhow, feeling frustrated, I decided to leave it for the night, and look at it again in the morning.

After some Googling, I found this site with information on starting the PS3 in "safe-mode", thereby giving you the options shown in the picture above.  I have all options in the order above, only having to restore the PS3 system as my last resort.  All worked well, and now the PS3 is back in business!

But....lost a lot of my previous game data, which means I would need to play 200+ hours again to get back all the saved game data which was wiped out during the system restore.

Ah well....better get started then!

Goodbye P-100

I'm just going to upload the last ever set of photos from our loyal Sony P-100. I will update this post tomorrow. Yup, the Sony P-100 is a gonna. It ain't gonna rise from the ashes, this time... For now here are some photos taken today around Taipei using the Sony P-100 before the evening's accident, which involved Chien-yu, her foot and the hard marble floor we have in our room. We now got a good excuse to get a new, better digital camera. Its going to have to be a Sony one though, because I invested in a 1GB memory stick. Need to make use of that as much as I can! Sigh, money, money and more money.
