okay i am having some problems with my ps3, recently(today) there was a power outage in my town everything was shut down,so when i was finally able to turn on my ps3 it booted up normally everything seemed okay until i tryed to go onto playstation store it told me i needed to redownload ps store so i downloaded it again when it got to 100% for install it stopped and said there was an error and could not complete it, so i figured the file was corrupted and i thought i should try safe mode but when i tryed to turn off my system it would not turn off, i flipped the switch on back of my ps3(probably should not have done this) and i tryed rebooted the system it said that the file system was corrupt and needs to restore so i clicked ok but when it restores when it gets to 37% it freezess for few awhile so naturaly i wait for it and eventually it starts again until it hits 48% that freezes again but then continues, when it finally hits 100% the screen goes black and it stays that way, my system will not restart like its supposed to so again( i probably should not have done this) i hit the switch in the back and then i start up safe mode i try to do the restore file option but it wont get any further than the please wait screen, i tryed putting an update file onto a usb and fixing it that way but whenever i try to pick any other option besides restore file system the whole thing just frezzes. whenever i try to do anything my system just freezes in the end and i have to force shut off.anytime i have try to start up the system it says its corrupted and will take me to the restore screen. i have had this system for about five or six and nothing like this has every happened. Can someone please provide a reasonable solution? I am really not trying to format this system it would really suck if i had to. can anyone help?

I have no idea, but you can try calling Sony, they'll have an answer.
