Raist said:I wonder if the systems will be able to connect to the PSN tho. They won't be fucked up themselves, but their internal clock still won't match the server clock. hmm...

BobTheFork said:Holy Shit! IT worked
wow, I wasn't expecting it work honestly but I'm back one the PSN. Of course I still have 2 screw sitting here. I sear that always happens. Dust free and running smooth
So if you are bored and impatient then go for it.
BTW I found my CMOS battery at the right front of the console not the right back like the pictures. It was on the under side on the console, I had to take more screw out of the main plate and lift the whole insides up and there it was under the power switches
Thanks for the help everyone, time for WKC
Lince said:that's why I'm saying this won't fix itself that easily, the system clock will always be off compared to that of the PSN servers, I don't understand the "valid date" explanation, 29th February is a valid date... unless they're fixing the PSN servers so when a "dumb, senile and phat" PS3 attempts to log in the servers do the extra math to even things out, or Sony releases a FW to put the system clock in its fucking place.
I'm still worried, my PS3 is on and the clock keeps moving forward so randomly, freezing for a while, then moving forward 2 minutes in one second... what if this bug just crashed the internal clock? the only fix would be the battery thingy right? I'm looking for my screw drivers now.
This indeed sounds like the only solution for people who want to play right now. As I said 30+ pages ago, the reason my fat is still alive is because it YLOD-ed on me a few days ago, and I had removed the battery and reflowed the Cell. Removing the battery reset the clock and I had to manually enter it.XiaNaphryz said:Has this speculated info been posted yet? Aside from confirming the system clock issue and the battery solution.

"We hope to resolve this problem within the next 24 hours," a statement reads. "In the meantime, if you have a model other than the new slim PS3, we advise that you do not use your PS3 system, as doing so may result in errors in some functionality, such as recording obtained trophies, and not being able to restore certain data."

BobTheFork said:So far it looks ok. I didn't lose my WKC trophies after all, they just got moved to the bottom of the list. I'm going to try and earn a easy trophy to make sure that still works as well.
I already bought them. I would prefer PAIN or Braid, even though I bought the latter on XBLA.ULTROS! said:Please be Super Stardust HD or Wipeout HD

Fixed.Struct09 said:I call BS. If it was the same issue that the Zunes had, Sony engineers should have seen it coming.
