Heads up. There is a system update required as of yesterday. Perfect chance for Anyone to try the Flash Drive. I know Stoney and Zimbo have already updated.

1. Creat a folder on the Flash Drive called PS3 it must all be in caps.

2. Inside this folder create another folder called UPDATE again all in caps.

3. Got to http://uk.playstation.com/help-suppo...ware/download/ and scroll to the bottom, then click Agree. The system software will download.

4. Place the downloaded file (Should be a .pup file) inside the folder title UPDATE.

5. Stick the flashdrive into the PS3

6. Do the system update but select postable device. The PS3 should automatically find it on the flashdrive.

Or you could do the old fashioned way and let the PS3 do it but it does take a while as it is a 150mb (ish) update.

This is tooooo complicated for mere mortals like myself, so just did it the idiot proof way...

As if login on wasn't enough for me to contend with I've now got to install an update....... How long did it take Ali Should I just switch it all on when I get home and let it do its own thing and hope it's ready by 7.30ish

Pretty much just switch it on and it will connect and tell you it needs to update. If not...

Go to the PS3 dashboard and go to the second from the left menu. At the top should be "System update". Click that and it will take you through the install. You will have to push right on the controller to go through each step or select the option like "agree" to continue. It's pretty easy but give me a bell if you need any help.

You may need to have an account before you do this but you have the steps now to do this again, need help just call. I'll be in from about 5.45pm .

Normally the updates take between 10-30 mins.
