(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hmm this is a strange one, brought a ps3 today and got it home, apparently had a faulty disk drive however when I plugged it in, I started for 2 mins then shut down with ylod, please note at this point it had never been opened! So I opened it, hoping it was just the dust and it needed re thermal pasting, so I cleaned it out and re applied the thermal paste the way I always do that works every time like a charm however it did the same so I ran the 'fan test' twice and it stayed on this time so its not turned off since its fine now on the xmb however when I play a game eg bo2 on zombies it shuts down with ylod? Its weird one because while ever on xmb it says on for as long as you want, also I'd like to note it's blowing warm air out the back which is all good. Please help me I used Arctic MX-2? I did get some on board and removed it as good as possible but from what iv read its not conductive.... Thanks

Do a barrel roll!
Could it be a dry solder joint somewhere on the board?
