How do I troubleshoot software loading problems on the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system?

Enjoy..

Hi there

Make sure the discs you use are Blue Ray , this is what is causing the problem. You can also have the PS3 chipped to play normal DVD's and Discs

If you just updated the firmware and the games stoped working after that then the firmware is corrupt

try to update the firmware again.

Try cleaning the lens with the following steps

Things You’ll Need:

• Isopropyl alcohol
• DVD lens cleaner

Step 1:
Make sure the laser pickup lens is actually the problem. There are a wide variety of reasons that a DVD player might not read a disc efficiently. The disc could be scratched or dirty, for example. Test the DVD player with a disc that you know works before trying to clean the lens.


Step 2:
Purchase or borrow a lens cleaner disc and try it first. You can find these things really cheap at any large department store. They usually get the job done well. However, you may need to clean the lens manually if the store-bought cleaner fails.


Step 3:
Remove the outer casing of the DVD player. Remove the screws that mount the top casing onto the bottom of the DVD player and slide the top casing off. This will expose the DVD deck, which houses the laser pickup lens.


Step 4:
Find the lens. The lens will be glass and under the DVD clamp. The lens will probably have a blue tint to it. If you are having trouble finding the lens, you could shine a light on the components and watch for the reflection.


Step 5:
Use a cotton swab and some isopropyl alcohol to gently wipe the lens. Just a quick scrub will do. Dry the laser pickup lens with the other end of the swab.


Step 6:
Give the lens a few seconds to dry and replace the covering of the DVD player. Test the efficiency of the player. If necessary, repeat the process.

I know why this problem is occuring! Becoz it will read only original disk you cannot use normal DVD/CD. It requires only PS3 Original discs! If you wanna use normal downloaded data to be READ. There is extra circuit available at the technicians shop which will play and read all the normal or home burned discs.

It may be the problem you told go to service station may be lance has been faulty.
