(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I was turing ps3 on playing then it froze normal ok but when i turn on itll load with green light but then beep and red light beeping until i click again no yellow light any fixes or tips to fix

This could be caused by a corrupt HDD, a bad power supply or overheating from dust thats gathered over time. I would think it might be the power supply gone bad.

Can we skype?

Mine is slim

Ok the thermal paste seems pretty easy. Where would i get thermal paste. Like office depot or any other?

radioshack, general electronics or PC stores.


You want arctic silver 5. It is a small grey tube and costs roughly $11-$13.

Anything else?

When applying, put 1 thin line down each of the two chips (CPU/GPU) and evenly spread it evenly with a card.


Ideally you would change thermal paste before overheating damages start to cause the console to shut down. Because shutting down is happening already, it will most definitely need a reflow to jumpstart the console. Otherwise if a reflow + new paste doesn't work, it will need a reball or the console will need to be replaced.

GL to you!
