Hello everyone, I'm going to explain my problem as best as I can and I hope to get some help
So earlier I was playing and then I turned off my PS3, but the screen stayed black for half an hour, so I unplugged the console (PS3 slim).
- 2 hours later I turned it on but the screen stayed completely black, nothing displayed. After trying a lot of manipulations, I decided to format my Hard Drive with Fat32.
- I formatted my Hard Drive and then put it in my PS3, I then downloaded the update 3.70 and put it on my USB stick formatted in Fat32 in the folder "PS3/UPDATE/update" as well. (So now it should work)
- I turn on my PS3 and this message appears:
"The system software cannot operate correctly. Press the PS button to try to restart the system.
If the system cannot be restarted this way, the system partition of the hard drive must be formatted and you will need to reinstall the system software.
Connect a storage medium containing update data for version 3.70 or later, then simultaneously press start and select.
For more information on how to obtain update data, please visit the SCE website for your country."
So I restarted my PS3 and the same message appeared. Then I inserted my USB key and pressed "START, SELECT".
And then it displays this message:
"No applicable update data found. Connect a storage medium containing update data for version 3.70 or later, then simultaneously press the START and SELECT buttons"
So I don't know what to do now, please help me, I've been trying to fix my PS3 since 4 PM.

For those who have the same problem, you can try this:
Remove your hard drive, put it in a PC and format it to NTFS (slow if possible)
Put the hard drive back
Insert the USB key with your OFW (following PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.pup) (in fat32 or fat16 if it doesn’t work)
Start your console normally, not in Recovery
The console will then ask you:
Formatting the hard drive
Installing your OFW
Geek out
Sleep
And after that, you’re good to just grab a coffee.
