Option B (if its the laser) is I send the ps3 to sony and i have to pull of this competiton (not a big loss, wasnt goin to make real far anyway) cause playin this game is fun n all but, u kno... a little change is always fun

any suggestion/warnings b4 I reset the PS3?

Ah man this sucks I hope you can get it sorted out before you loose all your data..

One thing for sure you need to back up to a external HDD.

Little off topic but I just got a 640gb HDD for my ps3 today, killer deal too $85.00

Yes back it up, i made the mistake of not doing so once.

@trk29: Im not all that great translating $ into £ but i know thats one hell of a steal on your part. which reminds me, i gotta upgrade mine

How old is your ps3, would be the main factor... unless it's seen a lot of heavy use, it would be unusual for its laser to be wearing out already. I have a cecha-01 series 60gb, and it still works perfect.
