The disk drive could be going bad. or the laser it self could be out of place. you could go to a tech store. I know there is a microcenter were i live that does this kind of thing.

Why wont my PS3 play any blueray games or movies?

Try using a lens cleaning disc. If that doesn't help your PS3's disc drive is probably dying. Time to call Sony support...

PS3 does not read my disc. I was playing a game when the sound went out on my game, although i could still play the game. I restarted my PS3 and now it does not recognize games or movies.

have your Hard drive and all cables connected to your PS3 unplugged, after 2 to 3 minutes try to load a game again, if this does not fix the problem, probably the main problem is that the lens might be damage, bring it to a local electronics or computer repair shop and let them have a check on it.

PS3 wont play game but will play DVD's

The laser in the dvd drive requires different strengths to read different discs. If its reading movies and not games then the laser is starting to go bad in it. You can either replace the laser if your tech save to open up the ps3 and opening up the dvd drive, or you can just get another drive to put in there. Either one you can get from Ebay fairly cheap.

3.0 Killed my PS3

Sounds like the laser diode burned out. If your under warranty send it in. If not you could buy a replacment and install it yourself.

Pro ev0 09 not working on the net

Are you using a router to connect your computers to the internet? Your router holds all the info for your LAN. You can get into the router software via your web browser, and find the ip assigned to the ps3. Next put that ip into the DMZ of the router. POst back if you have questions so I can walk you through it.

Disk reading error

your cs drive is probably dead(the laser module anyways) you will probably need to return the ps3 to sony and get a new one.
