Mine does the same thing. It will shut down and the red light will blink. I then have to press it twice to turn in back on. Or it just all together freezes.

I would defiantly do what method1278 said, my old 80gb used to do that shit all the time until I took it apart and cleaned the bitch lol but I still had freezes here and there so I done a format and so far so good but it's my old ps3 we hardly use so if it does it again its getting kicked out of the family lol

Can’t trickshot me!
It's a fault in your hardware you have corrupt the data on your ps3 that why its a flashing red light

Happened to me its nothing to do with YLOD

Hope this helped you Smile
