1. Rename the file to "PS3UPDAT.PUP" (no quotes)
2. On a fat32 formatted usb flash drive, create a folder named "PS3"
3. Inside the "PS3" folder, create a folder named "UPDATE"
4. Inside the "UPDATE" folder, place your "PS3UPDAT.PUP"
5. Insert the flash drive into the right most usb port of the ps3
6. Boot ps3 into recovery mode (or boot to the screen you see)
7. Select option "update system"
8. Follow prompt and install

Folder structure should be:
fat32formattedflashdriveroot/PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.PUP


Verify these things and let us know.
