PS3 Won't Install Firmware

Hi, I have not jailbroken my PS3 or anything. Just having issues and not getting any help from Sony.

I was having lots of issues with my PS3 not even booting so I just gave up and tried to reformat everything and start a new.

I have a 3001A model.

I have reformatted my HDD on my PC then put it in the PS3 and I have to install the new firmware of course. But no matter what I do I am getting a No applicable update data was found message. Greater than 4.25.

I have the new 4.31 firmware on a USB drive and in the PS3/UPDATE folders.

I even tried another HDD in the PS3 and I can't get it to install. Tried a different USB drive also.

Any help? Suggestions? Need more info?

Thanks guys!
