GT5 won't install

[ian h]

My copy of GT5 won't install to the hard drive as a bulk install. My ps3 is one of the original 60gb models, could this be my problem? I think i read somewhere that the original hard drives on these models are a bit slow. Not really an IT genius so not really sure what to try.??????

check you've got enough space free, you need around 8Gb

Mine fully downloaded on a old model

I have 40gb free space, I have very little on it only a couple of demo games and vidzone.

yes but game saves like cod take 2.5 gig and films and music and multiple user names all take extra space - more than you think

I had a similar problem with games not intalling on my desktop PC. I solved the problem really easily with careful use of a hammer. I hit the motherboard really hard with a lump hammer, smashing it, which meant I had to a buy a new laptop... game installed just fine after that.
