Is the PS3UPDAT.PUP in the right folder? PS3/UPDATE
also make sure the usb drive is formatted in fat32 and that your bluray drive is in correctly, you cannot install firmware without it.
If all else fails, try another USB.

Yes I've done two already with the same usb and same downgrader. With no problems this one is causing me grief I even swapped hard drive to another jb ps3 and formatted the hard drive to that one but when I try and put it in this one it won't read or register I will pull sort the ps3 and check the blue ray drive thanks
