When you clone, make sure you doing a sector by sector clone, for the ps3 filesystem is encrypted.

What does that mean? Can't I just go backup on my brothers PS3 and put it on a thumb drive then put it on mine? Or isn't it that easy?

sadly its not:(:(

KTR probably could explain it better than I ever could lol

Just another reason why I dont do stuff like that, its too technically advanced to learn and for it to be worth it always. Though somethings like this are easier than others I might add.

They screwed everyone that has a 1080p tv that uses component. I use to have a premium with only component out and after a update last year it stopped displaying full 1080p. I swapped out my 360 for one with HDMI (you got to love best buy's extended warranty) and that fixed the problem. The stupid techs at Microsoft were trying to blame the problem on my TV like if it never displayed full 1080p before the update but that was a lie to cover up for their update. I also got back 50.00 dollars because the price went down. Woot woot!

Well, the fact that my 360 is bricked right now means I have time to search forums and join clubs like these.

Huge 360 fan. When its working I play quite a bit.

Freaksavior - I used to work at Best Buy. How do you like it? I think the training system is a joke. From my experience, you should never ask a Best Buy advice or technical questions because they'll just give you their oppinion, as BB doesn't really teach you anything. I worked in the DigiCam department. I had to learn everything myself!

In the united states, it is one of the big electronic stores where you can buy anything from computer parts, music cd's, video games, anything a/v, and house hold appliaces (microwave). you can ether go to their store or to www.bestbuy.com and buy what you want. Also to note, the website handles more of what you want compaired to the retail store its self.

Even though I hated working there, I really believe BB is the best offline retailer. I remember when Age of Empires 3 came out, I went to every game shop in Reno, on release day. FUCKING EB never HAS SHIT ON release!!!!!!!!! I drove over to best buy and they were setting up the cool AOE3 cardboard display with the game!!!! i was liek WOOT!

@ dangle

I work in pcho (pc's)

and i just hate the public most of the time, i cant stand them some times, i know a lot about computers so it isn't really hard for me to explain stuff like this. I know what your saying though, we have one guy in are department and he cam from DI so he really doesn't know much about computers, but we are trying to help him out.

I'll be honest. most bby are rude and shouldnt be helping people, but my bby is nice (imo) and not just because i work there ;)
