Hello,

Configuration: Windows 7 / Internet Explorer 9.0

As you all know, when the PS3 is searching, there is an orange light that blinks. And now, the orange light stays on and the PS3 makes a horrible noise!!!

    The orange light indicates that your PS3 is searching on your hard drive (loading, basically). In short, the noise is either because your hard drive is full or because your PS3 is filled with dust.

    If it's because your hard drive is full, I recommend making some space by deleting things like music, videos, games, images to free up space. That said, if you delete a game, you can always re-download it from PSN if you downloaded it with your account, of course.

    If it's because there's too much dust, I suggest taking a can of compressed air and dusting it off. There you go, good luck!
