    Im kind of stomped too. First I never hear of a 12 gb PS3, but my first idea is how much space is free? If you dont have enough space for the memory and cpu to operate that could be the problem. Delete a few saved game memory and try it. If it works then you need a bigger storage space. Good Luck!

SOURCE: GAME FREEZE

Firstly let me just say that all audio visual units such as this, should come with lens cleaning utilities, as more often then not the laser eye is simply dirty.

  • I presume this is the case with more then one game and if this is the case, please read on. ( not simply one damaged CD / DVD.
  • There is a product for cleaning the laser eye simply called a DVD or CD lens cleaner.
  • I should imagine you could simply run the lens cleaner and this would more then likely fix your problem.
  1. Go to a store that sells DVD's and CD's or games and ask them about a "lens cleaner" for your ps3.
  2. Read over the instructions - should give you step by step, and this is reasonably important to do it correctly, so is best you read the instructions.
  3. Allow suitable time to dry ( 5-10 minutes ) as directed by the manual ( some of these are on the CD and can be heard by simply playing the CD or DVD in another player.
  4. Your games should now work fine, and knowing that you only just got it for xmas, you should still be able to make a warranty claim if the problem persists.
  5. There isn't much else you can do to fix this yourself, but a lens cleaner is certainly worth a shot.
  6. Lens Cleaners usually retail for anywhere from $5 - $35 for a good quality one, the end result is usually the same, so don't spend all your pocket money on something you could have gotten less expensively.

SOURCE: system freezes

Firstly, just out of interest, in the Settings menu, do this if using HDMI: BD/DVD-->HDMI 1080p 24mhz...this will be set to 'Automatic'...change it to 'Off'. Now try to play your Blue Ray disk. If not, it seems that your blue ray system is overheating, and the system is not giving it enough cooling allowance. I had the same problem. I called Sony support UK up and explained to them that I had a "blue ray laser failure", and if your PS3 is in warrenty, they send a courier to your door and replace it for FREE. They take your old one off you. I got my new one within a week just.

Sound choppy

HI, how does it game?

Can you play games on the system for more than "10 min" without issue? I ask, because gaming should cause more issues with overheating than watching Netflix.

CONNECT 3D RADEON 9550 256MB display problem

That graphics card i'm afraid is not good for todays games, same thing goes for your pentium 4. A driver update may fix your problem but that card and cpu need changing, probably a new motherboard would be needed also to fit a pci express graphics card along with a core 2 duo processor.

I think the problem it's graphic card

Check your antivirus software. This seems to be the problem of something running in the background when you are playing the game. If it would have been the Graphics card, the game would not have worked, or would have given errors.

Try to disable your antivirus or any other program that may be running in the background. Then check once again.

Play for only 10 mins then goes off

Most likely, it's overheating. I recommend buying an Xbox 360 fan.
