Well just to update, I've just done this on a friends ps3.
He took it home and said its working fine !!

does anyone if you lose you sign in passwords if you do this?

it KEEPS user and pass!!!!! JUST RESETS THE TIME AND DATE!!! when you do it, and turn it on, it will ask you straight away to put the date and time!! (put the real date and time) it by-passes what the playstation thinks is a "leap year" and then your good to go.. prob solved

thanks so much for the reply.. it's much appreciated..
