Carrying on with the rubbish week I've had so far my JPN PS3 phat style launch model suddenly stopped working properly.
Everything was working fine last night and I finally got round to getting gold with the Lotus Elise on the Top Gear track on GT5.
Switched off the machine as usual and everything seemed fine.
Turned on the machine this afternoon and the machine will now not recognise any type of disc that is put into it, I have tried music, dvd, blu-ray, ps2 & ps3 discs.
Have tried a lens cleaner in the machine and that's not done anything.
I'm guessing that my blu-ray drive has died as the games on the harddrive work fine?
Can't really afford to buy a new ps3 at the moment so I'm looking for recommendations for companies who may be able to repair it or whether I'd be better off speaking to Sony to see if there able to repair my machine even if it is a JPN machine.
