-   I have the exact same problem. My son was playing Call of duty last night and the sound went out and then nothing would load on it at all. I re formatted and of course lost everything. Sony said i have to send to them. Did you end up sending back to Sony or fix it at home??-   missing COD

-   I put the disc in the system, wait for the loading sign to go and nothing happens. the disc icon doesn't appear so i can't play my games. i have the 40GB console and i'm wondering if its a problem with it.i don't know if the 60GB gets the same problem. i am gonna try calling sony to to and find out! I have also try take the disc out and putting it back in again but still doesn't work. i have also tried turning it off to let it cool down and trying again but doesn't work. can anyone help me with this problem?

hey, I had the same problem as well. Except my audio was really messed up and it froze a lot. It was so bad that I couldn't play anything, nothing would load up and it would remain at a black screen. I did some research and found out that this is most like result from a corrupt harddisk. There are two possible solutions, one you can take the harddisk out and clean it off a bit (blow on it) then put it back (i do not really advise this and it may not work), or two restore the system to its factory settings (meaning system restore, can befound under system prefrences on the main screen i believe.....But, the best solution is to call up sony and get a replacement.

By the way! I had the same problem mainly after I played Assassins Creed to! But more realistically, it was weird because at first I was playing uncharted and i began to realize some problems, then both games stopped working. Uncannily, my other PS3 games did still work on the system such as Heavenly Sword, Resistance, and Motorstorm, along with Call of Duty 4.

Still....Call up sony I believe at - 1800-345-7669 -

Hope this helps! By the way, if you call up speak to a representative by pressing "0" at anytime.

Cheers and Happy Holidays,

Won't load anything, games cd's you name it. System not even 1 month old. Called sony and they won't help me because it bought it from a guy at work who got it as a gift so I am "according to sony" not the original owner. The damn thing was never even opened, much less registered and sony doesn't care! I will never NEVER buy another thing from such a lousy company!

Comment by Belias, posted on Dec 26, 2007

Same problem here, all was well but after putting "uncharted" in all of the same as happened to me.
Now my PS3 doesn't play anything anymore.
What a drag!
I have Formatted the hard drive completely; the sadness.
Oblivion, Spider man, Heavenly Sword, Motor Storm all data gone.
Still nothing happens, no disc plays, (CD, DVD, PS1, PS2, PS3)
Why is this has happened?
We should be able to reset completely the System and return it like brand new, you know like a virgin PS3.
