(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ok so i was trying to downgrade my ps3 using a e3 flasher. I bought the e3 nor flasher limited. I didnt relize that it didnt come with the esata station. I read somewhere that you could downgrade it without the esata. Well i ended up bricking it. I tried to uninstall the flasher and it didnt work. When i turn it on, everything starts up but there is no picture. I checked my cables and everything and it also wont accept any disk. The orange light that normaly comes on at the bottom didnt. I bought the esata station. So now i have everything but can anyone tell me how to fix this?

There is tutorials around the site that can help you. You just need to find it. And I believe you need to sodder.
