Hey all, last night I left my game disc in my PS3 when I shut it off, today when I came home from school I found my ps3 was on, and the disc was by the side of it, sometimes my 2 year old nephew turns it on, I'm assuming he likes the beeping sound, he sometimes does this, and I'm never around to catch him. This time though I found a piece of card sticking out of the disc drive. Now I don't know if its just that one piece or if there's more inside, I couldn't see through the slot. I haven't turned it on to check yet, I'm nervous about it. Any thoughts on what I should do?
Thanks in advance..

The PlayStation 3 (often abbreviated PS3) is the third home video game console created and released by Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.
2 year old neph put paper in the disc drive, help!
Oh Noes!!!!
In all seriousness, I dont think theres much you can do to check without voiding any warranty (opening it up). Unless you could get a light and shine it in the disc tray. But the again I'm not currently around a ps3, so I would just have to say start it up and see what happens. Whilst crossing as many things as possible.
My little nieces like the flashing blue pilot light on my Wii's, they've both tried to stick their fingers in on occasion, when they do, I tell them it'll bite them if their naughty, I suggest you do the same.
It would be wise to open it up and check.
Dude...that sucks, that kid would be dead in my house. But really there isn't much you can do besides opening the thing up, I don't think Sony's warranty covers small children.
Oh man dude I just have to say sorry one more time, I feel sick just thinking about something like that happening. I mean damn I hate 2 year olds, just old enough to destroy everything you own.
Apart from cracking it open and manually removing the debris that could void your warranty I don't really know how to fix it I'm afraid. Probably difficult to do so but you could always place your PS3 in an elevated position so he can't reach it. Make sure to not to leave any wires hanging down either so he won't yank it down and damaging the PS3 (and possibly killing him as well).

So, I don't really see the problem
Alternatively, get those leases that stop dogs from running amok in your garden and attach that to your nephew instead.

Place a piece of double sided tape to the edgeof a DVD. Then, place the DVD in gently and pull. I think I remember doing this once and retrieving a piece of paper from a small slit.
