Re: Holy crap… do I ever want to throw my PS3 out the window right now!

Thanks for your “condolences” everyone! It's much appreciated. Here's the update…

During the restore of my system last night, the process froze at 48% complete. It stayed at this for almost two hours until my PS3 eventually reset itself. When it restarted, all of my files/game saves were still on my system. Whether they have been corrupted or not, I do not know. I immediately turned off my unit and I haven't turned it on since. To be honest, I'm actually scared to turn it back on. I'm going to go and buy some canned air today to give it a really good dusting and then eventually turn it back and back-up all my game saves on to a portable hard drive. The only crappy thing is the fact that Rock Band doesn't let you back its files up, so I'll have to re-download all of my songs (I have hundreds upon hundreds that have been bought between me and a friend) and rent the first game to export all of its songs back to my second game since I no longer own it. I'll keep everyone updated!
