This has happened to my 3.55 Rebug and then it got the YLOD. I was playing a game one time for about an hour, and then it shut off with the red blinking light. Turned it back on for a few and it did it again. Later that night I data transfered and it got the YLOD. I suggest you try get something new thermal paste on and look into re flowing it or re balling it before it does get the YLOD.
Noooooooo don't say that lol. But see its like some games I play for 20mins and it shuts off with blinking lights. But others like madden 13, wwe 13 and need for speed most wanted it plays long and fine. I just replaced the thermal paste so I hope that's not it. I have the phat 80GB and how can you prevent YLOD because I did all I was told when the paste was replaced. It's not used or on long. I give it 30min breaks every 4hrs. It's located in the middle of the tv stand and I dust it off every week, I vacuum the vents When I see dust
