Hi guys I have a problem I don't know if I bricked my PS3 Cech 2104a. And when I turn on my Ps3 then a black screen remains. I used PrepISO before then I switched on my Ps3 again and does not start. I just inserted a game now and the CD goes in.

Hi folks I tried it further the buttons don't work either because I hear the fan but I just can't do anything else I haven't tried the hard drive either, what's that really a brick?

I tried everything, even AV, it still doesn't work, I also tried other TVs, but the console behaves normally, even beeping is normal

And it won't boot into recovery mode, right? That definitely sounds like a brick to me, but what exactly did you do with PrepISO before shutting it off?

That would make sense. Do you know how to swap the hard drive on your PS3? Because you might have to wipe the drive and set it up for your PS3 again.

Note: I'm not a PS3 expert, but this is my best guess.
I tried it with and without a hard drive and another one that was completely cleaned didn't work either.

Now that's strange to me. Have you tried booting into recovery mode with the completely empty hard drive in it?
For me it is also strange I do not know what it is on other forums I read that it can be the RSX chip. Yes, I've already tried to boot into recovery mode without a hard drive not working, that's all stupid for me

Then you can flash it. nor/e3 flasher is needed iirc but obviously first try all software methods.
Could you give me a link to the e3 flasher Amazon or Ebay De Thank you. I have now just removed the cover, so the fan works. The power supply works and the drive works. No picture. I tried everything.

Just google it and you can hopefully find, but if you ask me, I would find a underground videogame shop (you know what I mean), visit your neighborhood/city. If there is, they still have an e3/nandflashers and can do it for you. Beacuse iirc you need to do soldering.
