yhomz093:Now this one I'm a pro at, if it's the issue I think it is. Does it not play any disc (BR, DVDs & CDs)? Or does it only refuse to play BRs (PS3 games & BR films)? And does it make the ejection noise when you put the disc in? If it's the BR one with the ejection noise, then I can give you my usual non-evasive fixes. |

cao:it doesn't make any noise... I haven't tested DVD's bt I've tested all my game cds and it's not reading it |

yhomz093:Check with DVDs & CDs, this is to see if the problem only happens with BRs. If it's only occurs with the BRs, then it's either a hardware problem (then you'd need to replace the BR lens) or a software problem (usually a corrupt boot file). |

cao:what if it doesn't play DVD's and cds too does it mean I'll have to change the lens? |
Re: Ps3 Not Playing Disks by cao(f): 9:29pm On Jan 03, 2015 |
yhomz093:Yup. |
Re: Ps3 Not Playing Disks by Nobody: 10:13pm On Jan 03, 2015 |
cao:like how much does it cost and where can I change it? |
Re: Ps3 Not Playing Disks by ololo12: 10:32pm On Jan 03, 2015 |
It shouldn't be more than 10-15k |

yhomz093:Not a clue, but the thing is if it's a software problem, then you would have wasted all your money for naught. If it's the corrupt boot file, then enter the safe mode and select Restore File System. Be sure you choose this option, it won't delete your saves, files, playlists etc. This link will show you how to enter safe mode. http://community.us.playstation.com/t5/PlayStation-3-Support/How-to-access-Playstation-3-SAFE-MODE/td-p/5812274 I just realised I never asked which model of PS3 you're using. One of the other ways I use is to clean my BR lens with a BR lens cleaner. And another is to play a downloaded game (a demo also works), then inserting the BR into the PS3 and then pressing the PS button - the disc icon will then pop up in the necessary area (under video for films, under games for games). One other thing I've also found is, if I leave my disc in the PS3 and then it shuts down, I've to sort out the nonsense all over again. If it's the hardware problem, I know I should have the link saved somewhere. |
