I didn't get the specifics but he said something like his brother turned it off when it was getting an update or it was saving or something like that.

about to start up a forum topic about it, hoping they can offer some suggestions, my main concern right now is getting his Black Ops out of the system so he can still hang on to it in case he does have to ship it in to be serviced.

I'd replace the hard drive but I think they've succesfully engineered a screw that will not budge (I think they superglued the damn thing in lol)

Unless it's the first one to remove the hard drive, use pliers or you'll destroy the screw. It's really soft metal so if you use a screwdriver you won't be able to screw it back on.

can pliers even grip that low?

I'll go give that a try in a bit if I don't get anything out of the help.

I'm trying to save the hard drive if I can since i'd be downgrading to a smaller hard drive if I swapped them out :/

When you get the hard drive out you'll have those tiny and extremely annoying screws and the only thing I could get them off with was pliers.

Edit: That sounds kinda wrong now that I read it again lol

Oh I haven't even got the tray out, there's this blue screw that I need to get off first in order to slide it out, that one just will not budge.

Be careful with that one so you don't rip the plastic-y stuff on it. I think you need to push it in while you turn it to loosen it

yeah even with pushing down and turning it just won't budge, so I either need to be superman or start tossing the thing against the wall lol.

if anything that stripped the screw more, which is making it even harder lol, which is why i'm hoping there is a fix that doesn't require me to replace this ungodly snug thing in there.

Bad news, finally got a reply and so far from what I am reading, the PS3 is dead.... YLOD,

I'm inclined to believe that since when I turn it on, it flashes yellow then blinking red, which I think is indicative of YLOD I think?

Also, as people already stated, public transportation is only really feasible/effective in cities. The United States has much more land to cover than anywhere in Europe.

Makes me think of our defunct railway system though. :( Government really puting the nails in that coffin too(for quite some time now). Such is life though. Would love for there to be an awesome Maglev from coast to coast(complications of that scale aside), or at the very least a train that didn't cost the railway more money each time someone purchased a ticket @,@. Navy stuff time!

"Well there ain't no rest for the wicked, and money don't grow on trees..." Truer words have never been spoken or, in this case, sung. Never thought of myself as being "wicked" before but I haven't had good, restful, rest (as in, I haven't slept more then 2hrs in every 48hr period) in 6 months so I think It's about time I reevaluated myself...All I have to say about money not growing on trees is...FML. >.<

Surely every city has it's own public transport system? Inter-city transport is another matter altogether, and I'm sure most countries, especially larger ones (geographically) deal with it with buses. You're right about Europe winning that one though, such a high population density over the entire area makes trains so much more feasible.
