It seems that my HD is corrupted, any suggestions how to fix it.

I was thinking using my friend's laptop to format my HD.

Yes, you should upgrade or format your HDD. Refrain from playing any disks on it until you're done reformatting or changing your HDD.... As a matter of fact, take our any disk that's in your PS3 right now to prevent the possible disk error.

wat seems 2 be the problem exactly?

oh, so ur hdd is meast up?

Just do wat bbsin said. dat should work.

Edit: Personal milestone!!!! 300 posts!YAY!!!!!!

If you can't access the system utilities then formatting it with an outside utility is your best bet.

Good luck.

Still thinking, how much are 2.5 hardrives are for anyway.

I got a 160gb 7200rpm 16mb cache for 99 dollars

Yeh, you just have to take it out and reformat it
