  • Hello,

    Seems like you have some issues with this install. I believe that after a while you get one of this error codes; 80710723 or 800233EF

    Anyway, the problem with the install is not your console nor the Instalation DISC. You need to set your console to  De-Militarised Zone Mode or simply DMZ

    Mode and set up a static IP then delete your game data utility folder and restart the console. After this you should be able to install your game (Tutorial here).

    If this is not working, try to shut down your network router or disconnect your ps3 from any network and install the game while the console is offline.

    Thank you

  • Hello,

    Did you tried to set the static IP though?

    Try to set the Static IP as in the tutorial I posted above.

    i tried that today it still did not work.

  • Ok, 

    Well this is sureley a problem with your console's HDD.

    Therefore I will suggest you to boot your console on safemode and then try the following:

    - Restore Default Settings. (basically your console will be restored to the default factory settings-but be advised, this operation will delete all of your settings)

    After this procedure is completed your console will restart and you can try to reinstall the game. 

    If this will not work try this next setting:

    - rebuild database. (this will remove any corrupted files from your PS3 that are hindering you at this moment)

    After this try to install the game and see if it will work. If not try this one:

    -Restore File system (this will restore any deleted/corrupted files. It's in fact a system Repair, just like the Windows one)

    Restart your console and try to install the game. At this moment the console should be able to install your game, BUT, if this will not work, your last resort is the option

    - Restore PS3 System, a complete reset. 

    be advised that some of these settings might remove/delete your savings so I suggest to save and back up any important file from your HDD (save files, music, photos or videos)

    I hope some of this might help you.

    P.S -> this is a LINK to a tutorial that will show you how to access the Safe Mode menu.

    Thank you and keep me posted about this issue!
