Dad bought a Sony PS3 - 60 GB Hard disk for me - I played several games - Carbon, Harry Potter, Uncharted Drake's Fortune. But for past 3 days, when I insert any one of these games, the Loading sign is shown but BD ROM symbol does not appear.

HELP ME

ts a problem with the latest download update. sorry to say but its a job for sony as long as its still under warranty. just phone them up explain the probs your having and they will send you a new (normally reconditioned) unit out. sony's replacement service is very good.
