1. Insert a new 2.5" sata hdd into the ps3
2. Boot ps3 into recovery
3. Select option "restore ps3 system"
This will wipe everything (games,saves,etc) and format the hdd to your ps3
When it is finished, you will be brought to a black screen, asking for your last syscall(last cfw installed)
4. Download your cfw, rename the file to "PS3UPDAT.PUP" (no quotes)
5. On a fat32 formatted usb flash drive, create a folder named "PS3"
6. Inside the "PS3" folder, create a folder named "UPDATE"
7. Inside the "UPDATE" folder, place your "PS3UPDAT.PUP"
8. Insert the usb flash drive into the rightmost usb port of your ps3
9. Follow prompt and install
