And no matter what I pick in safe mode it kicks me back to that same error (outside of options 6 and 7 which will delete everything). Any ideas? --- TheRock ~ I had a name, my father called me Blues. <cite>TheRock1525 posted [p:943398796] in So my PS4 ...

GavsEvans123 08/15/20 8:42:26 AM #4:	This happened to me a couple months ago, although in my case the hard drive broke and I had to replace it. I did take the opportunity to upgrade to an SSD hard drive with twice as much space while I was at it, so it wasn't all bad. I'm glad your PS4 was fixed successfully! <cite>GavsEvans123 posted [p:943408272] in So my PS4 ...

davidponte 08/15/20 8:48:36 AM #5:	This happened to me a few months ago and SHINE's method also worked. For me it was because I lost power while it was on, and then once it got to the screen that said 'restoring the system, do not turn off the power', I lost power again, which killed the system software. I've since gotten an UPS so that doesn't happen again. --- I was the final Undisputed Champion in UCA history, but azuarc was our Guru Champion! <cite>davidponte posted [p:943408390] in So my PS4 ...
