Question

by the way the system is slower than its soppost to be it has 44 GB on it still it shouldnt run this slow...
i rebooting the whole system and it says 3 hours remaining but its been 2 hours already so there must be somewhing wrong with it


i bought it used there doesnt seem to have anything wrong with the system cuz it worked great when i tested it...
i have an intercooler thingy so im sure its not cuz it over heating...anything im doing wrong?
cuz i read the trouble shooter and it said to hold the power button for 10 seconds and it will work...but it didnt still same problem...please help its really insanely pissing me off.


note: i have to games and netiher of them are working. i am not putting it in backwords b-cuz it shows me the select game screen SOMETIMES not always so for the game to even be read i have to restart it and then move around the controller analogs...

Answer 1

well i don't know if this is true or not. but i had a guy that is an electronic engineer or something like that tell me not to ever get intercoolers becuase they run off the game system's energy or something like that, i don't remember how he explained it all. but i do remember that he said intercoolers will fry the systems out and do damage to them. like i said i don't know if this is true or not. just a guess to what could be your problem.

Answer 2

Is the system working ok otherwise? i.e. does the XMB come up ok, can you connect to the internet/PSN?
Try some different types of disc (CDs, DVDs, PS2).
The 'power button for 10 secs' is really only for resetting the display settings and probably wouldn't have an effect on your problem.
I'm afraid, it sounds like you may have a broken console.
You might want to try checking out the playstation forums on the official site and maybe making a posting there, where there are more tech savvy folks than me about;

First of all - internet is full of warnings against intercoolers. Don't use it. Right now the only thing you - can do - Find Restore System command in Settings(I think it's under System Settings menu). If that won't work - take it to the service.
