(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); well i had a ylod ps3:n00b: and this is how i fixed it i got my ps3 went along the back vents from left to right with a hair dryer on full power for about 15 minutes then i put a fan so it was blowing cold air directly into the vents for 20 mins then it worked for a few months and happened again so i repeated the process and it works again so good luck hope this helps:tits:

if this happens to me i will try it

My friend did this exact same thing. It only works momentarily and if you use the hair dryer too much, the plastic on the back of the PS3 melts.

It's a temp fix. You may be able to get away with Netflix or HDD games, but once you startup a disc-based game (Call of Duty etc...) you are f.u.c.k.e.d. You need to flux the board to fix it.

Alot like pain killers, they only cover up the pain, not fix it.

my ps3 is still working it did break again but i just did it again n iplay cod alot well its probaly just luck lol

Simply open that bad boy to get to the NAND/NOR and swipe thermal paste on it

But that's sick I never knew that :y:

Nice thread

dude im going to tell my friend about it

Well done for changing your sig so quick!!

thanks for this info i will definately use this
