I have the same problem guys, it happens at different times online when im playing World At War. Sometimes I get one game in before it does it, sometimes i get none. After a day of this im paying my buddy 20 bucks who has a recent warrenty at bestbuy and putting my system in his and getting a new one through his warrenty. I hear they dont check serial numbers or anything, so the plan is flawless I hope

Hey all,
Just wanted to give some input . I had my game for almost a year before i decide to go online with it. I was told that a wired concetion would be the best. So after play for about a day 1/2. I was getting stuck while playing .I would turn system off and let it power cycle for 1/2 hour. And that seemed to work. After that when I decide to play again i started getting error codes. Again i would power cycle everything(modem,rotor and the ps3). I had a friend do some reach on this error code 80010514 this code can be a few problem, 1. dirty blue-ray lens 2.can't read disc. So i did what sony told me to do to correct the problem. It work for like 20 mins and i got the code again and again. Now my system is no longer reading any disc. I have been on the posted messages on the ps3 blog sites and people are telling that i have to pay $150 for a flaw in sonys ps3 systems. This doesn't seem fair that we have to fix problem that sony is well aware that they have made a faulty system. I feel that sony should of had a recall on all systems. Right now I am in the process of restoring my system. I am keeping my fingers cross that this will correct the error code. If anyone has any other input on this error code please let me know. Oh by the way my friend found the email address on the CEO of sony so here it is howard.stringer@am.sony.com . I have emailed him and waiting to here back. Sony needs to step up to plate and own up to that they made a faulty system .

same problem I have PS3 over a year and had no problems but since getting COD5 at Christmas and playing on line in last few weeks error 80010514 has occurred same symptoms freezing after short time - a little suspicious that it has occurred after 12months of perfect working un - networked and only since going for on line gaming has problem occurred having read a few other sites - don't think this is as isolated as some have made out

when i insert a none bluray disk it works perfectly, but when i insert any of my games they don't load on the menu. It started when one of my games froze so i turned of the system and reset it all. IT STILL DOESN'T WORK! and i need help.
Comment by BossPlaya17, posted on Jan 09, 2009
You may be right, the system could be overheating. But, when I tried inserting a none blu-ray disc it worked prefectly. So, I bet that the bly-ray reader is the one that's broken. I've also read that once you get that error code message you'll never be able to play games again. I think that this problem sucks and that Sony should be ashamed. I payed 800 dollars for my PS3 and after a year without any problems this happens. It's so damn frustrating.
Comment by Guest, posted on Jan 09, 2009
I have the same problem, i was playin COD5 online and it would freeze inbetween loading the game, ending the game goining into the lobby again, and then i wouldnt read the disk, then it wouldnt eject the disc, im sure u have the same problem, i did have it in the entertainment thinger, so it prob was overheating in there, then i moved it next to the fire place a little cooler, but once i started the fire it started doing the same thing, it might be overheating, but idk, if it dose it agian im going to take it back to best buy for a new one becaus it has never done this before untill now.....it could be overheating or something else....let me know if yours prob was overheating as well due to bad air circulation....
Comment by BossPlaya17, posted on Jan 09, 2009
What's up guys? I have the same problem as you. I was trying to finish GTA IV to a 100% when suddenly the game just froze. I got the now so called "code of death" error. Luckily I don't have to pay anything to get my PS3 fixed. If they can't fix it, I'll be getting a brand new PS3 (fingers crossed). But I have to say I feel really bad for those who have to pay so much to get it fixed. Bad SONY!

Ive been doin a lil research on error 80010514 and it seems that everyone was online when this occured but not me i was just playiin my madden franchise with my buddy and the system froze so i restarted it 30 min later it froze again then i went through it reading and not reading, reading and not loading etc. I left it sit and cool down thinkin it was an overheating issue, so this morning i jumped on NHL 09 and it worked perfect for and hour then same issues re occured, i did update home the other day so maybe it is all firmware issues, my system is out of warranty and im not payin 150 for them just to look at it, ive got connections so i should be able to get my system replaced at the video game store i worked at, at any rate i jsut want everyone to be aware its not just being online, and apparently this is a rare issue so dont hate sony just dont be heading to the casino anytime soon as apparently we are the unlucky bunch.

I have had our PS3 for over a year by a couple of weeks. I had pretty much the same problem after update while trying to download Call of Duty World a War. I called and they told me that I would have to pay 150.00 to get it fixed. I have the same error code 80010514. This sounds like a defect issue and I do not feel like I should have to pay for an issue that everybody else is having. I have also tried everything (and I mean everything), but still freezes.
Comment by felonious P, posted on Dec 26, 2008
if your out of warranty,then I'm sorry to say your
Sh*t out of luck. Called Sony yesterday, actually spoke to a younger guy who was very nice and easy to deal with. (I was shocked also..) I'm close to a week out of warranty, with the ps3 being a year old. Proof of purchase, which i don't have, is irrelevant since I'm out of warranty.
I explain to the guy, due to it being Sony's faulty hardware. Why, after spending $400 plus dollars for a system, not to mention the money i spent on controller's, composite cables, HDMI cable, Games and PSN content, I should have to shell out another $150 bucks at least to have it fixed or replaced. I also mentioned that Sony must know about this issue, since so many people are dealing with it. His responce was "You can't believe everything people say on fourms... "(no sh*t kid) He then proceeded to tell me how his 60g had the same issue, which resulted in him having to pay to get it fixed.
I then give him my whole Xbox story and how they owned up to their mistake, extended the warranty, hooked me up with some M$ points, and had it back to me very quickly!.. All at their expanse!
At this point the situation is going nowhere. I give him the whole im gonna dispute blah..blah..blah.. It's at that point he says " I'm gonna be honest with you. People call everyday trying to dispute and nothing happens. It's Sony's policy! " Even he said how messed up it was. I tell the kid he was lucky. Because if I had to deal with some jack a$$, rather then him, I most likely would have made them cry.. I was Pissed! He gives me all the info, where to fill out the fourms, and for those of you out of warranty and don't have some sort of credit card, Good Luck.. Unless you submit that info, No Box which in return means... No Fix! So to all with this issue, I feel your pain! Sorry for the book..
(oh yea... for the record, the guy i spoke to @ Sony was very kind and professional. Also just so its clear, I maintained my PS3 as if it were a diamond. I took care of it!) K all done

FarCry 2 froze in the middle of the game, after rebooting I couldn't start any Blue-Ray games. Ran the PS3 Recovery, games started fine while I was offline, but after enabling the network connection I can no longer play any Blue-Ray games, same error (80010514). I am 8 days out of my extended warranty (pbt).

Comment by Guest, posted on Dec 08, 2008
Seens like playstations are alaways breakin. Just like the freakin ps2 had a lot of prolbems.The system is so dam expensive people shouldnt have to pay because the freakin disc reader is flawed.seems to me like the ps3 is having a lot of prolbems like ps2. As far as reformating the system goes i wouldnt even bother.I think a couple of people in this blog said they did that and it worked. I dont know how it could have. If the system does not read disc it cant be a file formating error unless maybe u have downloaded stuff online thus giving u some sort of spyware to make ur system malfunction wich seems highly unlikely seing how the ps3 should be like a mac when it comes to spyware. It seems to me like the prolbem could only be in the system hardware obviously the disc reading device.It would be my best educated guess that the ps3 does have a good cooling unit because it has air vents on 3 sides and the fan inside the console really cranks.How ever the ps3 really produces some heat.My system started malfunctioning on me and sony wants 150 bucks to service it.for all i know they are just going to replace a 20 dollor componet i could buy at a ps3 dealer and repair it myself. not to mention how r they going to charge 150 bucks when they dont even know what the prolbem is. one guys ps3 may need 5 new parts when mine may only need 1 and we both have to pay 150bucks!!!!!!!!! after paying 600 bucks for the system(i got a 80 gig thats why it costs so much.) My system went out when i accidently left it on for 3 hours in my entertainement center. i also had the doors closed to the entertainment center so it was like a heat box in that thing. i came home and tried to play when the system froze on me. I opened the doors to the enmtertainment center and felt the system .It was hoter then hell.I shut it dont let it cooled off and now everything works execpt it wont play games. The game icon never even pops up under the game section. I tried a music cd and it didnt work either.Didnt have a dvd layin around so i havent tried that. My advice to anyone reading this whos console still works to keep a fan on ur console and fiel the system after every hour of playing.if it feels really hot shut it down. if it feels warm ur ok its suppost to feel warm and even a little hot but if it is getin extremly hot shut it down save urself 150bucks.Those fan packs prolly help but my friend has one and told me it keeps his system cool but if u play online u cant have the fan pack hooked up with an either net cable becuase the fan unit blocks the eithernet port there is no slot in the fan unit for it.

JUST had it happen to us. had the ps3 with COD-4 for a year with no problems. 2 weeks ago, my brother pre-ordered COD-5 and it was still fine. 2 days after warranty, this particular error started occuring. my brother asked the technician and she said the same thing as the "best answer". just have them send you the packaging to return it, send it back, and wait with hopes it works and doesn't poop out on you again.

I was playing COD WAW and my PS3 that i bought 14 months ago froze up. I restarted the game and i got error 80010514. I restored the system and any BRDVD,DVD or game disc i put in the console freezes and comes up with this error. I called Sony and they told me I would have to send it in to be repaired which would cost me $150.00. I payed $500.00 for my 60GB PS3 just over 1 year ago and now like many others I am getting screwed out of $150.00 by Sony.

Comment by monkeybaul, posted on Jul 25, 2008
same as everyone else. frozen pizza. easy fix=call sony and have them ship you a box so you can send them your ps3. they will fix, or replace, your system FREE. ( providing you have your reciept and are still under warranty). you will get your system back in about 10 days. if you are out of the warranty period or lost your reciept it will set you back about $150. also my ps3 is the 80gig that kept freezing-up on GTA4.

Just after the latest firmware release was put on I started having problems with games stopping in the middle. After a few more re-boots, I got the dreaded error code 80010514 which is (after reading several comments) a blue-ray disc error. Will be calling Sony.

I tried everything. I did a full reformat which took nearly 5 hours. That didn't work. I then went to GameStop to buy a DVD Lens Cleaner, which cost me $10.81, still didn't fix the problem. I think the best way to resolve this problem is to send it back to sony for another ps3. On a side note, I did some research and it said that the error code 80010514 happens frequently to the 80gb.

i have the same problem, my ps3 is a 60 gb european unit (pal)... i started having this problem for the past 2 weeks and it is really annoying... tried to use the ps3 upright to reduce the overheating issue but without any luck... sometimes the system crashes after only 15 mins of play, sometimes after 2 hrs but i consistently keep on experiencing these crashes and the error code...
i do not think that this is an overheating issue though...
Comment by Topcat612, posted on Jan 29, 2008
I am having the exact same problem. PS2 games and std DVD movies play but no blue-ray discs. I have tried everything listed here like restarting and formatting the unit, no luck. I s/w Sony and they said I need to return the unit and they will replace it @ no cost w/a new 1 year warr from when I rec the new unit. They are sending me the packaging to return the unit. If there is any fix besides returning the unit I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks
Comment by Guest, posted on Jan 23, 2008
Same problem with error code 80010514. The console is only 2 months old with the latest patch 2.01. Normal DVD's, Playstation 2 games and audio CD's will all play, but any Blu-Ray media will not. This is NOT specific to Call Of Duty 4 or any one game (read a lot of posts to that regard.)
Resetting the machine to factory defaults per Sony phone support does not fix the problem.
I flat out asked the technician if they received a lot of calls on this error code, and the reluctant admission was yes, without any further explanation.... (although I did hear him mumble something about a laser issue in regards to the blu ray drive....)
The solution, as aggravating as it is, seems to be contacting Sony either via their website or their help line (Phone Number
1-800-345-SONY (7669)) to request the materials to send the PS3 back to them for replacement or repair.
Note: on the help line, 0 will bring you to live customer support once you have keyed in your hardware platform and preliminary problem.
5 days to receive to the packaging materials and then 10-14 days to receive a new unit upon their receipt of the old unit.
Here is list of what you need before you send your unit in:
http://www.us.playstation.com/whattosend/ps3/default.html
Hope this saves you some time that I wasted......or maybe they'll push out another firmware patch to correct the issue before I have to ship it back.
Comment by Guest, posted on Jan 09, 2008
I would love to know how many people are having this problem! I am in the exchange process right now with Sony because of the infamous 80010514 code which by the way is not very easy to do because contacting them online seems to be impossible and contacting them by phone is next to impossible. Maybe I am being a cry baby because I can't live without my Warhawk and COD4! (although my wife is happier)

I keep getting an 80010514 error code when i try to play games. I've tried to restore all the settings and it didnt work. Now no matter how clean or new the games are they still dont work.

yes the error code 800010514 i got it and it drives me crazy, lol. It seems that its some kind of corruption in the start up operation. There is no fix, but only to call sony and replace it, but the thing is they clam that they (when called) that they are unaware of that error code. however from searching on the web it seems to be a massive problem. Tried to post on the ps forum but just got bashed, my thought are that they are payed to monitor the forums posing as gamers to discourage those who have negative feed back on the operations of the system. ps3 xbox are in the same both, evolving their systems as they go along is not a good idea when mass errors occur, to many patches= errors
