Update Problems

So my father-in-law was at the house for about a week and completely screwed up my PS3 somehow. It got to the point that upon every start-up it would tell me my files were corrupted and attempt to fix. Like a moron, I didn't back-up my GT6 files and after the PS3 couldn't fix itself I had to do a factory reset of the system.

I knew that I would have to download and install all of the GT6 Updates, but holy christ, there are 18 of them and it took hours to dowload/install. The problem occurs when the game prepares/installs the updates. I always get an error about 1/4 of the way through this installation process (this is about 1.5 to 2 hours in).

Is there anything that I can do to get the updates to actually install, or should I start using my GT6 disc as a Frisbee. I really am done tieing up my PS3 for literally hours at a time for absolutely nothing.

Does anyone know a better way to do this than starting the update process and crossing one's fingers? Is there a way to download and install each update separately? Sorry if this has been brought up often before, but searches using the search function didn't get me anywhere.
 
Three good choices:

1. Clean your disk thoroughly
2. Dust out the inside of your PS3 (take caution, watch an instructional video)
3. Get an SSD
 
Thanks,
I just found a thread in another forum on here with some suggestions. I'll give them a try, but it honestly sounds like a pain in the ass. If we are forced to accept the updates, why can't PD make them actually installable without an obscene procedure?

Ok, have fun with that! :lol:

I don't know.

What good would the SSD do?

It helped me use the system faster because it worked much better. The HDD failed, but the SSD has no moving parts to ever worry about. Everything works faster.

His problem isn't speed, it's the updates failing.
