Hi there,

Edited - as have found the real problem...Please ignore all posts on page 1 until the bottom of page 2

Basically,

Upgraded from Rebug 3.55.2 -> QA flag -> Rogero 4.30 V2.0
Since then PS3 when booting from off will display a message "Attach USB cable to PS3 and connect controller then press PS button". After doing so, another screen appears saying "There is a problem with the system software, press PS to try and restart" -> If I press the PS button, the system restarts fine and there is no problem.

This does not happen when doing a reboot or any other time, only from a cold boot.

It has been suggested in this thread that I should have gone back to OFW 3.55 before upgrading.

I have downgraded 4 times now with the same exact result.
The problem does NOT appear on ANY other firmware.

I have downgraded this way...

Rogero 4.30 V2.0 -> 4.25-3.55 downgrader in recovery -> Rogero 3.55 3.7 in recovery -> Then QA flag -> Then installed Rogero 4.30 V2.0 again...same problem

Rogero 4.30 V2.0 -> 999 downgrader in recovery -> QA flag -> OFW 3.55 in recovery -> Rogero 4.30 V2.0...same problem

I have tried performing all restore\rebuild\fix options in recovery and in XMB on Rogero 4.30 V2.0 and also on OFW 3.55/Rogery 3.55 3.7.

The error message does not appear on a cold boot on ANY of the intermediate firmwares...So no problems on...

OFW 3.55
4.25-3.55 downgrader
Rebug 999 downgrader
Rogero 3.55 3.7 downgrader

I have tried pretty much anything I can think of to resolve this to no joy for the past 10 hours or so.

My PS3 is a Slim, NOR model that came with firmware 3.3x
