THE HARD DISK'S FILE SYSTEM IS CORRUPTED AND WILL BE RESTORED

Everytime I cut on my PS3, I keep getting the message "The Hard Disk's file system is corrupted and will be restored." My only option from this point is to select ok, my only option by the way, and wait for it to restore my computer to 100%. When I press ok, a loading bar comes up. Once it gets to 100%, it goes back to the same message, and I have to do this over and over again, with no results.

People keep saying that I can take out my PS3 HDD, put it in a laptop, and reformat it like that. I want to do that, but I'm not sure of the steps. Do I restore it using a program on my computer? Or do I get an operation system disc and do it that way? Please help. ::

Hold in the power button until you hear 2 beeps. might not work the first time. if no 2 beeps repeat power button again or until 2 beeps. go to restore hard disc and click on it. you will lose anything saved on the hard disc but fixes it 75% of the time. did it myself this morning.

My PS3's hard disk file system is corrupted

There is an alternate way to restore your HDD. Turn off your system and when u see the red light, hold the power button in front until you hear a total of 4 beeps (1 alone, 1 alone, 2 together). It usually works on second try. it should show a screen and say hook up controller with a usb cord. Then it should show i think 6 options. Choose the restore option. it should work.

Hope it works and wish you all the best!
P.S.- I just got the 80010514 error on my ps3 and my ps3 games dont work anymore :(

The Hard Disk's file system is corrupted and will be restored

apart from physically reformating the hard drive yourself (taking it out and loading it on laptop or desktop and format, at your own risk), there isn't much else you can do. If the console is still guaranteed then contact sony and they will send you a new one.
If you do format it your self when you replace it in your ps3 you will need to format it again using thier options.
