Default Dead PS3

Basically my PS3 has become inoperable I believe it stated when my PS3 was somehow powered off during an update (I wasn't around at the time), and since then it's been acting very strange.

Corrupt HDD data, crashes during updates, lose of any and all settings (including but not limited to Time/Region settings, Wi-fi, etc). And recently the poor thing has given up trying... No video/audio (and no holding down the power button to reset video settings doesn't work)

Which brings me to the point of my post... Anyone with any idea for repair BEFORE I choose to send it to Sony. It's a 60 gig, out of warranty, so any thoughts would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, Kuma, there is nothing else that can be done other than call Sony for the out-of-warranty replacement.
