Andrew 4748 Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 Actually sounds interesting. I was interested in stuff like that about 2 years ago but moved more onto computing and all that.Did a games programming course for 12 weeks at the start of the year.. i think i got some sort of qualification out of it? ... Kevin, seriously, it sounds like you were into Games Design like kids get into Pokemon for a year or so and it doesn't seem like you're that into computing. Exactly, it may sound like it but you have no idea of what interests i have. I'm actually going to take apart my ps3 tonight so i can get in at the blu ray drive and try and clean it out. I know what im doing like. Then i'm gonna do the same with my computer or laptop to see which parts go where etc. learn as i go. no offence kevin, but you thought a hard drive was a blu ray drive just yesterday, please dont attempt this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously - you didn't know the difference between a blu-ray drive and a hard drive when you were linked to one. Despite a) there being a picture of what was clearly a HDD, and the words 'hard disc drive' being in the Amazon listing for it. Good luck and all. edit; or what the above poster said Edited August 18, 2010 by Tecato Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin 1 Posted August 18, 2010 Author Share Posted August 18, 2010 if he's up for it then, why not. but no, it looks rather simple the inside of a ps3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't work, right? So even if you just took apart and put it back together, you'd have no idea if it you put it back in the right way, because it still wouldn't work. I'm all for having a go at things, but I'd try something simpler, that already works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin 1 Posted August 18, 2010 Author Share Posted August 18, 2010 Aye I sacked the idea. My brother knows a boy who fixes them and he reckons that the lense on it just needs cleaned, so i'll see if my bro can drop it up to him soon. I'll upgrade my ram myself, then have a go at bigger things when i get the money. anyway.. back to alevels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew 4748 Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 you need to pair your ram equally so you either need to go to 2gb(with 2 1gbs) or 4gb(with 2 2gbs) once again, googling will yield what you need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
