click Here For Details

An update to the PS3 system software was released on July 8, 2008.
If you update your PS3 system, the system software version will be
2.41. In order to download PS3 system software version 2.41, you will
need a minimum 135Mb of free space on either the PS3 Hard Disk Drive
(System Update) or on removable storage media (PC Update).With
this update, we have fixed the problem that has prevented a limited
number of PS3 systems from activating properly after updating to
version 2.40, which was caused by certain system administrative data
being contained in the HDD.For those users who have updated to
version 2.40 and have experienced the problem that the PS3 Home Menu
(XMB) is not appearing, or no images are displaying on the screen,
please contact Customer Service.We have confirmed that for those
users who have successfully updated to version 2.40 and are able to
activate the PS3 system, this problem will not occur on your PS3.We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused you and appreciate for your understanding and continued support.Note:

• This system software update includes all features contained in previous versions.
  
• The new system software will preserve any settings previously made to the PLAYSTATION 3.
  
• Depending on the software title, you may not be able to play without first updating the PS3 system software.
  
• Do
  not perform updates using any data other than the official update data
  provided by Sony Computer Entertainment over a network or on disc
  media, and do not perform updates by methods other than those described
  in the product documentation or in this site. If an update is performed
  using data from another source, by another method, or with a PS3 system
  that has been altered or modified in any way, the PS3 system may not
  operate properly and may not be able to install the official update
  data. Any of these actions may void the PS3 system warranty and affect
  your ability to obtain warranty services and repair services from Sony
  Computer Entertainment.
