    You need to use one of the blu ray bypass firmwares. If that doesn't work, try service mode(if you have anything that can put your ps3 into service), and use jaicrabs patched lv2

    if your firmware is below 3.56 You can just get another drive and bmd-006 logic board and remarry the system. The 40gb uses a 16 nand chip that is much easier to remarry and you will retain blue ray movie play back abillitey. The drives are about half the price as the other fat ps3s as well.
