At this point you may figured it out...anyway, if that's not the case try this: - step 1: press the power button (PS3 turns on) and hold it until the console shuts down by itself; now you can release the button - step 2: press the power button (PS3 turns on) again and hold it until the message "Connect the controller using a USB cable, and then press the PS button" appears on screen

When he turned it back on, the system froze before loading the XMB. So he went into safe mode, chose "Restore File System" and now it says: "Preparing...Please wait". It's been 24 hours and he's still seeing this screen.

Hi guys, I couldn't get safe mode going and had black screen with no signal from the tv all from changing the output cable after installing rogero 4.46. It's all good now. I had to heat the two heat sink plates at 400 deg for about 30 sec with a heat gun, enough to reset whatever needs resetting, reapply new paste and then it will let you into safe mode by following the methods you see online. I tried everything and repeated this process a few times to prove it was the only way. Hope it helps.

I have a 500GB HDD in my PS3 and even though it's pretty full I was able to clear out about 45GBs of space for Metal Gear Solid IV which is only reading as a 27GB download. So I'm not sure why it continues to tell me I don't have enough to download this game. I'm going to try some of these Safe Mode options and see if they help maybe there is some corrupt data taking up space on my HDD that I can't see.

When I take my finger off and hold it again, the red light doesn't blink anymore it just stays there. If I push it again it starts up and gives the yellow light again and repeats. Changing the power outlet doesn't work either.

Also when I hold down the power button it turns on, then another bleep for resetting the video settings then another for the resart thing however it doesn't turn off, instead it stays on for a few seconds then completely shuts down as if you have just pulled the power out the back of it.
