    [Answered] ps3 updates help?

    Our ps3 has recenty stopped recognizing any games or movies in the system. It won't even allow me to do an update on the system. When I called sony they advised me to download the update from their website and transfer to a flash drive, then to my ps3. I found the download, but my computer will not open the file because it is a pup file. I am clueless as how to proceed... I have googled it but haven't found anything that helped. Can anyone help me to open this file and get it transfered to my ps3 properly? thanks!!

    You do not have to open the file at all, just copy it on a flash drive in the directories PS3/UPDATE.

    So, if you are using windows, and your flash drive is "E:", it will be:

    E:\PS3\UPDATE\PS3UPDAT.PUP

    If you do not have the folders PS3, or UPDATE inside of it - you need to simply create them.
