on another note, i do know that some companies use 3rd party toshiba motherboards to repair PS3's and i've even heard that w/ some ingenuity one might be able to increase the ram for the cpu/gpu (the ram parts a theory) but there are options to replacing the RTC w/ non-defective ones, and these 3rd party companies sometimes warranty their work.
[QUOTE="LiLEviL_187"]53 minutes until the next 24 hour countdown begins lolsamssf
24 hours was just an estimate of how long it'll take, I doubt it'll be fixed by then.
Uh, no. He's referring to the GMT time, which will hit midnight at that moment. And hopefully, the problem will then resolve itself. For now. But a patch will still be required to ensure this doesn't happen next year.

Whos going to take their console apart in 1 hour if it doesnt get fixed? Show some hands.
It's a problem with the internal clock or some other problem, nothing taking apart the system will help. Just relax and wait for the official word from Sony. It's amazing how people can't go one day without their PS3, just chill and wait.
False. Many people have fixed this problem by removing and reinserting the CMOS battery. And to everyone who doesn't already know: It's NOT a problem with PSN.
yes, and now I'm a zombie who is standing right behind you with your kitchen knife in a hand and a laptop in the other, writing this with my huge blue zombie tonguebehind me!!! you must of been real skinny, to fit behind where i am everyone knows that zombies fit anywhere and also, you don't see me because I have Harry Potter's invisibility cloak!
[QUOTE="tdogg_1990"]Hey from New York City here. They just showed this ps3 error thing on the news. They said that Sony promises it will be fixed in the next 24 hours no matter what happens after midnight. Also it is a clock bug.moonevil200
You know what makes me really upset? I can deal with the wait... 24 hours? no problem, I do hope it is 24 hours from the moment it started and not from the moment they spoke to a news reporter. What I CANNOT understand is the fact that sony did not explain anything to us. Even in the US playstation homepage, until last time I checked it, there was no comment on the problem, which is ridiculous. People are doing crazy things on their PS3 because they thing they themselves must have done something to it, or maybe was a game. Sony cannot keep its customers in the dark during moments like this. Ya exactly. You know thats a good point, because people could really jack up their consoles by opening them. It sounds like sony knew something like this was going to happen and they didn't tell any of us. It just really makes me question my decision to stay with sony over the last oh I don't know like 10 years. Microsoft has had its problems to but I just thought sony was above something like this. I don't know... they've just always treated me right. I feel dirty and betrayed :(

I read the entire first post...
The statement by Sony was"We hope to resolve this problem within the next 24 hours." not "The clock will hit midnight in 24 hours and the problem will fix itself."
Sony will also no doubt have update PSN to prevent this from happening again.

[QUOTE="StealthMonkey4"] For now. But a patch will still be required to ensure this doesn't happen next year. it wont happen next year for the same reason it didnt happen last year. The ps3 just thinks a leap year is every 2 years rather than 4, if it happens again it will be 2012

HA!...not rude at all...I have been here with you...I type via PS3....Was a friend's theory...I told him it happened in offline PS3's....I struggled Googling this error right after it happened....I did it again frustrated and watched the 08 thread start back up. I was stunned.....

I don't know why they'd really need to update PSN... unless you mean they'll need to release a firmware update for our PS3s, which they most likely will. But anyway, the point is that people are counting down to midnight GMT, cause a lot of us are speculating that the problem will resolve itself at that time.
OK I was patient yesterday and didnt post a thing. I get home from work today and the same crap. Any real news. Anyone anticipating that we can play tonight.

Well, I stand corrected but I don't see why anyone would void their warranty and take apart their entire PS3 as opposed to just waiting a bit for Sony to clear things up.

wrong stealth monkey --- there is a very good chance the problem will automatically resolve itself when the GMT time is march 2nd ... that is why people keep saying 50 minutes, etc ... its march 2nd then, and that may reset or resync it properly according to people ... I'm no expert, but it makes sense that if it started automatically at a time of day, it can end the same way. Also, several people have reported that sony has the aptch ready and waiting but is waiting to see if its necessary to jam up the servers and add a patch for something that will be over in (now) 30 minutes.

Those warranty stickers can be taken off and put back on without anybody noticing. I did to a 360 which is now 2-tone black and white!
