  • i have no warranty what the fuck :'(

  • i had this red screen thing ,i tried every solution ,and it didnt work ,so i just took harddrive out and put new one ,installed firmware ,and it works fine

  • i just got the RSOD just a few minutes ago so i tried booting up a few times after that and still got the RSOD so i flipped the main power switch unplugged everything then plugged everything back in and now its working just fine...but now that i got the ps3 turned off, now I'm somewhat afraid to turn it back on haha...

  • So according to this guy;

    "If you have the red screen of death, there is probably something wrong with your console"

    Gee, thanks.

  • @VirginBurglar He must be the inventor! PS3 sucks and now I understand why.

  • WAIT WAS THIS FOR FREE?

  • @ownd785 its free if you have the warranty if you dont its gonna be $100 if you live in the U.S. From what i heard it takes 2 months till you get your playstation back =/

  • fix it for free...BULL SH*T!!...they said "you will need 2 send us your playstation...whats your credit card number so we can charge the repairs to your card" thats nearly word for word what the lady told me.

  • @steve519

    WTF, if you call sony, they fix it for you for free!

  • @steve519

    WTF causes that fucking red screen...i tried fixing it and failed!

    damn....i'm gonaa have to take it to them people that fix it!

  • I got a red screen today...not a big gamer, but I use it to watch movies and stuff. Anyway, it was working just fine the other day. Today I turned it on and it had the red screen with a bunch of error messages written in different languages. This has never happened to me before, so I didn't know what to do. I've been looking for easy fixes all day. I don't even know how to get in contact with Sony, but it turns out that my PS3 is also out of warranty.

  • i got the screen an hour ago, restarted the system twice and left it on for like 20 mins while i was looking for solution online...

  • my ps3 fucking have that wtf... fuck sony its my third system having a problem error

  • I bought one online for cheap and it has RSOD. It's funny cuz the guy i bought it from only got it in January, thus still having a valid warranty as confirmed by sony support lines, and was a dumbass and removed the Warranty sticker so he gave me his junk.

  • my ps3 got red screen of death 2yrs ago i just remembered i have youtube to find a solution

  • @GhostRecon436 I know how you feel.same thing here..mine is almost 2yrs and it is the 2nd ps3 we have. the 1st one still works but it doesn't play the newer games.

  • For those PS3 owners who's warranty has run out, before you give up on your system try swapping in another HDD. The fact that we are getting any kind of display at all means that there's probably nothing wrong with the hardware itself. I think one of the systems greatest features (easy HDD upgradeability) may be the issue. Sony does not manufacture HDD's. We also have to remember that Sony does suggest swapping the HDD before you call customer service. It's your choice.$40 HDD or $150 service.

  • Steve, how much did you have to pay to get Sony to fix your PS3?

  • Get your PS3 up and running again. Fix any error it may have, from error codes to red and black screens and YLOD, right from home! Don't waste time and money shipping it to Sony - youtube.com/watch?v=W6IqzZV3c0­k

  • OMFG i just got my ps3 a week and 2 days ago and this shit is fucking up man DAMN

  • rsod is sooooo fustrating.... just as i was about to get the platimun trophy for cod 5 it breaks!!

  • i just got the red screen of death this morning! someone please help!

  • how you call song wht the english number?

  • never heard of this RSOD before...

  • Mine died with movie still in it....a redbox movie lucky aren't I!

  • 500* gb.

  • I own 6 of them. Not lying. And none of them have problems. The only problem I've ever had was my my very first one. I bought it the day of debut (60 gb model) and last winter the hard drvie crashed. Bought a new 00 gb one for $50. Problem solved. Weird. I've never heard of this rsod until my friend pointed it out to me.

  • That people is the face only a mother could love haha. A face of concern! >:/

  • My 160gb was just under 11 months old. And I had just done an update the week before.

  • there is no repairing help with PS3LIGHTSFIX. its a scam.

  • I've had my PS3 for 6 months now and this never happened to me!

  • @UnitedProviences i didnt change anything, what do u mean m8?

  • I just called Sony and they said Id have to pay $119 to troubleshoot and $29 to return shipping. There is not tech support they can give me over the phone. :(

  • fucking sony did this on purpose so people could waste their money to fix it, they put a bug in it so this could happen, people get these red screens after a year, kind of obvious, lucky i didnt buy a 1 year warranty, ive heard so many people complain about red screen, its time to protest against these bitches

  • @926531 yes of course. sony wants to ruin their own reputation.

  • @926531

    naw man ps3 is just crap

  • FUCK SONY i bought my ps3 slim 120 gb 3 weeks ago, just a moment ago i was about 2 play mw2 and than i got this red screen of death error, i had a 360 for 3 years, everyone says it fails with the rrod but mine was just doing fine, i hate how everybody says ps3 is best xbox sucks , cuz my ps3 didnt even last 3 weeks -.- , 3 weeks ffs! FUCK SONY!!!

  • Whats the sony phone number

  • You should put the other video as a video response, and do the same thing for the other, so that more people who saw the other video will be able to see this video. Just a suggestion!

  • did u get ur memory back when they fixed the rsod on ur ps3

  • i sent my ps3 in to sony do you know how long it will take for them to send it back.

    My ps3 also got the rsod right after i downloaded add ons so im guessing there might've been a bug in the download.

    1 more question does sony send the ps3 u sent in back to you or do they send in a new 1 if u have warranty

  • i have the FAT PS3 and i got the RSOD and i tryed the recovery screen and it didnt help so i phoned up my local Sony store today and told them the problem, and they are coming to my house 2moz with a new ps3 slim free of charge and they will take away my current Fat ps3 for spare parts. so calling a LOCAL sony store is your best bet.

  • All you do is put the newest firmware update on a thumb drive and boot it to the bios. It's super easy, no cracking open the case to do it. Theres really nothing you cant fix on a PS3, thats the beauty of these over the Xjunk 3-crappy.

  • @detsportsnut

    stop being a hater both systems are good and yes i owned them both

  • Comment removed

  • @detsportsnut at lease Microsoft stands behind

    their product and gives u a 3 years

    warranty... what dose Sony give u a

    big screw you and pay us 150 when your

    system breaks . such a shitty company.

  • @MrTechGuy224 dey giv u a year u retard

  • Comment removed

  • @cj77ba you dumb ass Microsoft give u 3 years on the red rings trust me i been through it . you crack head

  • im sorry sony knows der system is gud so they dnt neda giv u a 3 year waranty u fuckin white trash

  • @cj77ba there system is good are u kidding me lol please . the ylod is the same thing as red rings . its all caused by over heating , when u use cheap solder ( non lead ) might i add .. and try to stick a computer in a small ass box with out proper ventilation your asking for trouble u dumb ass . have your brain been refurbished or something Sony just to fuckin too cheap to stand by there shit.... enough said ...

  • @MrTechGuy224 ur fuckin retarded n y should i if u wana fuck with me lets go im on 2nd st framnigham ma ome at me

  • @cj77ba lol Well now its verified that you have had your brain "refurbished" lmfao@u, I suggest that you send it back to the company that did the work and demand your money back homie! Just like you will when your "Sony" messes up... this is too comical.... this dude wanting to beef up over the internet and a simple comment...... Can you say "Mental Health issues?" LOL

  • @MrTechGuy224 iv had my ps3 for a bit over 2 years and nothing has happened to it my friends hav to buy a shit load of crap jst so it wont over heat iv left the ps3 on for 3 days straight and guess what it still works ya should try to do dat with the xbox with no colling shit instaled

  • you make having a system that's so poor you have to give it a 3 year warranty because it's very likely to break sound like a good thing. i'm all for the that system saved my baby and that other one gave me a job thing people have going on but, you and I both know 360's are very poorly made and die very quickly.

  • well that maybe true but ps3 is no better..... I'm not a fan boy at all I call it how i see it.... if u ask me they need to go back to the drawing board but hopefully both of them will get it right next time around

  • Comment removed

  • i currently have this rite now and im just waiting for the box to come in,, sometime when i turn it on and off it works but then when i turn it off it has th rsod

  • Red screen of dead displaying: a serious error has ocurred! Means that your ps3 motherboard has been damage and the only way to fix it is by replacing the motherboard the repair cost goes from $120.00 to 160.00 if you send it to Sony. Good luck!!

  • does sony give you one year warrany for haveing ps3

  • @Erkansen55 Yes you get a one year warranty with the ps3 that I am positive. I believe all gaming systems come with one year but not sure.

  • @HPT50 yea man b/c i had a ps2 and something happend and i called sony they said they had 1 year warranty so most of the systems have 1 year warranty

  • hey guys had the same problem the other day (RSOD) when trying to start up playtv..fixed now just did a screen restart and changed over the usb port on the playtv.

    Hope this helps someone out.

  • ive had this 2 times on the same ps3 the first i just turned off and on the console and the second time witch is now its not going away.

  • i gotta question. I called them but how much did it cost you

  • the prob was the update. It has a bug.

  • Thanks for the vids steve. I got the Red screen last night when I started my ps3. Called sony they said NOT GOOD. My warranty was out by 22days but sony is gonna cover it for me. How long did it take to get it back?

  • @crippler71981 you gotta wait 1-2 weeks

  • did you have to pay?

  • fuck damn it both 360 and ps3 suck with their problems pfff . i have them both ... ps3 can resist more than xbox 360 but i think the last xbox 360 is stronger than the old

  • i got red screen too, tried everything but replace the hard drive (couldnt be bothered) before i phoned sony. now theyre sending me a replacement tommorow!! didnt evn have a reciept they just checked serial number! kick ass

  • lol i did the same thing man lol. Google sonys number if you want it

  • lol! xbox = red rings

    ps3 = red screen

  • I just got the red screen of death. My ps3 is only 4 months old that is pathetic.

  • tht really sucks.

  • Me too. Friends ? lol

  • @rammiser Mine is 3 years old and I have no problem at all. Its like with everything else, sometimes you get a bad copy of a good product. It sucks, but its reality...

  • @rammiser You probably got ripped off i had my PS3 for 2-3 years and it works awesome..ly

  • @rammiser

    Very pathetic, you are lucky you dont have a XBOX360, that has RRoD's every single month

  • @carlosmits not every month ur retarded.ive had an xbox 360 since release and ive only gotten it twice,first one got a new one for free,2nd time was last week and i got a slim which will not get RROD. so ya

  • @rammiser 24/7 playing, i guess :p

  • @Xzynorqui ps3 = red screen and yellow led lol

  • lol

  • i just got the fucking red screen of death this morning, its fucking BS. i bought 2

    ps3's already and the same shit happens to me.

  • @KKCKING just send it to sony call them

  • @KKCKING bought my ps3...6 months later, red screen...got a refurbished one...5 month's later, random shutoff with triple beep....fixed....2 months later (today) got another red screen, but it only did it once... i guess i have some shit luck eh?

  • @KKCKING Fuck yh this could be my story the SAME happend to me yesterday and its also my 2nd ps3 -.-

  • XBOX 360 4 EVA!

  • here's the problame i got the red screen of death thing, And i sent it back for repairs and gave it back.. later like 3 or more weeks later i got it got it again i sent the ps3 back to sony about 3 times for the same reason every time. my recomendation is to back up you stuff when the games start to glitch up, then Replace the Hard drive with a new 'SATA' 5400 RPM(at minimum) 2.5 intch Hard Drive and Replace it with the current one. That is my advice. IT WILL COME BACK SO DONT RICK IT.....

  • @jin131516 did u get ur game saves after u sent it back the first time

  • Yep. I just got hit less than an hour ago. Thankfully, there was no disk in the drive. I bought the God of War collection not even two weeks ago and received the subsequent update. Hmmmm...

  • SADLY I JUST GOT RED LIGHT FLASH COUPLE HOURS AGO PLAYn MW2 it just shut down and cant get back on. man this sucks guess i have to call sony. im heart broken thats more money my MW2 stuck in there it wont even eject. damn this pisses me off it happened today couple hours before i updated software for new version i wonder....whatever.. psst

  • @jdmdgk

    wait, so it broke, and then you updated it.

  • I bought a PS3 the 2nd day they came out, I played that thing to death, and it finally went out on me about 5 months ago....I bought a new PS3 (the thick version with only 2 usb ports and no memory card slots) and it has already gone bad...red screen for me. I played it earlier today for about 2 hours, went to work, came home 7 hours later, turned it on, and BAM, red screen. I don't understand what is causing it, because I installed the latest update about 10 days prior to today.

  • Yeah all you have to do is save it on a flash drive unless this thing happens i got it and u cant do shit

  • just got it. i hate the ps3 now.. even my 360 didn't break down as fast as this system.

  • need new HDD drive that is : )

  • Can I formate my PS3?!? Could it work? How do I formate it?

  • go to settings... system settings...

  • No I cant lol! Because I have the Red Screen of death and its permanent (allways there) THATS WHY IM POSTING HERE!!! I can't do anything but to turn off and on the Playstation 3!

  • i just got it too. it pops up when it starts.

  • thanks man,

  • I dont understand why Sony will tell him Blah Blah Blah.?

  • smart alick.

    WoW.....=]

  • what im still wondering is why in the F*** did i get a system back from them that had the red screen.........is it something with my cables ....did sony mess up ( it said it was QA tested)....or was ups negligent and fucked around with my ps3.....................

  • i lost my ps3 do to the fan fucking up on me

    but...................i got one back from sony and IT had the red screen gah

  • my uncle gave me a ps3 cuz he happened to have 1 so if it gets messed up wat do i do?

  • actually 0.02%.........

  • if u r sending ur ps3 in nd getting a new one take out the HD from the side

  • wat do u mean

  • wat do u mean

  • the hard disk buddy on the left side theres a little fleap....remove that...take out the HDD and get a screw driver take that part out...put in a different HDD in put screws back in send your PS3 in and get a refurbed PS3 and you still have your HDD from before...replacing the HDD doesnt void the warranty either so your good...sorry about that i shouldve described what i was saying more...

  • so when i bought my ps3 i forgot 2 get warranty in the store so does i mean i still have warranty with sony

  • thx rappingkid,U rlly saved me the time and hassle about my HDD but im still not sure about that voiding sony warranty,but my ps3 was different,first stopped playing games,then only let me play downloaded games and vids......but then kept freezing b4 it even got to the loading screen and so i formatted everything and it worked fine playing downloaded games but still i had 2 send it back 2 sony

  • lol when i go online with my xbox it crashes at least twice a day it's only 3 months old...

  • cuz xbox is gay

  • sip gan...!

  • i need to save my data just in case,so how do you do it

  • Im glad i have PS3, it havent crashed at all, i have one class mate and he says, my XBox keeps crashing every hour!

  • Same here.

  • 360 is getting the new Jasper motherboard, which kills the RROD failures.

  • how can u fix it

  • IT'S CALLED A FLASHDRIVE! Save your game saves on it just in case :)

  • Rice5phere some ps3 games cant be saved like TC R6V2 so it dose suck

  • Ya i wish i would have known my ps3 would crash the day after then i would have backedup all my data.

  • it wasnt the PS3 itself it was the update
