The problem is when im starting my ps3 it turns on but then i cant turn it normally off and it wont send a signal to my television.
This happened after i wanted do dissable sen acces in sen eneabler from gt accademy.
I think the problem is that the ps wont boot, if anybody know a solution or a way to solve the problem would i be very proud if u tell it me.

PS: sry for bad english its not my motherthoung.


Can you boot into recovery mode?

Ok so how did you determine that the harddrive is bad?

regardless,

1. Put the new harddrive into the ps3
2. Boot ps3 into recovery mode
3. select option "restore ps3 system"
This will reformat the new harddrive to the ps3.
Once it is finished, it will display a black screen asking for the last syscall(the last cfw you had installed)
4. Reinstall your cfw OR Install You must login or register to view this content.
5. Run You must login or register to view this content. if needed
6. reinstall your cfw

Thank you very much for the help.
At some reason i cant open the recovery at the moment. How i find out i put an other harddrive from my unjailbroken ps3 in it an then it showed a screen which said error loading firmware... so i found it the problem is the harddrive. So first i habe to install rogero downgrader and after that i can install d-rex 4.75.3 because i want to switch on that cfw?

Rogero 999 downgrader is for cex, you are on ita witch is dex, so dont use it.

Just put the new hdd into the cfw ps3 then install d-rex 4.75 via usb.

It's ok, putting in a new hard drive into the ps3 will force the format screen to come up upon boot anyways. Then after format you will be able to install downgrader.
