System update 1.93 is out now [updated]

Posted Sep 12th 2007 11:20PM by Nick Doerr
Filed under: Firmware Updates

While it doesn't really do a whole lot other than fix the bugs you may have encountered from version 1.92, a new software update has been released for the PS3 and you should download it. If you can't get on the network to even download the update, there's always the option of sticking it on a flash memory and uploading it directly.

From what we saw at the PlayStation forums, that doesn't seem to really be an issue for anyone yet, but it may happen if you're somehow locked out of all things internet-related. Well, enjoy being able to play Warhawk again, if you were hit with the bug!

[Update: the servers seem fairly unstable at the moment, so if you're in no big rush, it's probably a better idea to wait until the morning to download the update. It's not necessary, just saves you a bit of trouble if you keep getting a network error.]

2. So I just grabbed (or tried to grab) the update and it looks like it froze my system. Now WTF do i do? Pretty sure I'm not supposed to turn the machine off while it's in the middle of intalling updates...

4. I got to 2% and figured theres no point in downloading it now, whether it crashes or not, i dont need anything fixing and if there is a big server bottleneck issue then i dont see why i should serve to add to the troubles, so i'll give it 24hrs and give it a whirl then, instead i'll sit back and enjoy the media server capabilities :)

5. Great...so any advice, anyone? Right now I'm seeing a black screen and the blue & green lights on the front are lit.

6. whoa,.. MY PS3 sound and video settings keep randomly changing it drops from 1080P to 480i and the sound settigns go from optical to composite,. WTF!!?

Posted at 11:48PM on Sep 12th 2007 by Tim Parsons

8. that's what i'd thought (hoped for, really). But it's been at least 15 minutes now.
