When you start the ps3 hold on the power button for five seconds until you hear a double beep.

it sounds like when it copied to your ps3 it saved somewhere, in this case maybe it over writed your PSN icon and when the xmb tries to load the image it crashes your PS3.
you might have to find away to delete it from where it went or maybe try a new PSN icon |

@advanced
What does that do? Why dont you just erase the HD and then install it into the PS3 using the manual? |

holding the power button for 5 secs. will make a double beep noise, this is what that is for:
it resets the theme makes default startup game-os there are other things too, but those should fix your problem if your ps3 will actually make it to xmb |

i dont know if its the on the harddisk or flash?? if its on flash and i send it to sony will they send it back or destroy my whole console?? or should i just remove the harddisk and replace it,, because the firmware on ps3 is on hdd right??? |
