I've never heard such a thing can you tell me how you can "bake" the PS3?
Thnx
my method 100% success.
preheat oven to 100 deg celcius with ps3 in oven from cold. this will bring everything up to an even safe temp.
remove ps3 from oven and turn up to 200 deg celcius
place ps3 mainboard only with all heatsink pads and paste and battery removed on a flat baking tray upright making sure that it will not tilt or fall if knocked and use some balls of tinfoil to level it.
once oven is preheated put all this in the oven and bake for full 10 minutes - dont worry about going slightly over it 12 minutes is fine.
when time is up open oven door and turn off oven let it all cool down in place, dont knock it or the oven when doing this and open the door slowly to avoid moving the cooker etc.
put all back together when cool with new paste and it should be fine
btw there is a thread on here about it.
