hello there, i'll make it quick. I turned on my ps3 today at around 3:30pm..i could see the littlebigplanet disc on the XMB...i turned it off cause i realized i wasn't going to use the ps3 at that moment. so i went later and i moved the ps3 to my other tv and when i turned it on the disc wasn't there...my cousin was with me so we started to play 'Marvel Vs Capcom 2' and when i was done i wanted to play littlebigplanet...and the CD didn't show...so i thought it was nothing so i turned it off. when i turned it back on a message on the ps3 said that 'the system had to preset (i forgot the word) on the hard disk.'...and the only option was to press 'ok'

i pressed it and i still couldn't see the disc anymore. i put in MGS4 and nothing appeared...i i went to settings and switch the setting of 'autostart disc' to on... so i restarted the ps3 and it just sent me back to the XMB screen...i'm pissed, frustrated, and extremely sad. I remember that 2 friends have had the same problem but i dont know...can anyone help me?

it seems that i can put the disc in and out but it never appears on the XMB...SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!! I LOVE MY PLAYSTATION!!! :( :'(

It appears that your blu-ray drive went out...a loading circle at the top right appears but it never loads the game up?Happened to me last November. It cost me $161 to send it off and get it fixed.

Yeah sounds like your another victim of Sony's shabby hardware.

heyy well there was this one part... 'One user even formatted their PS3 hard drive and found after doing so that the game discs started to show again. This showed that it was a software issue and not hardware.' and i'm really scared to do that because i have like 10 movies there XD and awesome ones too (a clockwork orange, fight club, american history x etc..) and all of my music...but i could go for deleting it...but how would i go about saving my game memory? and would it really work or are the chances slim? i also put in a blueray movie and that icon does show. just game icons dont. what are your solutions or suggestions?
