(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Today i got the LYOD on my 3.55 console :FU: . I've watched videos on how to fix it, but i am unsure. Who here has had it fixed? Is there a way to PERMANENTLY fix it? Or is it only temp for 2-3 months? And what's the easiest most effective way to fix.

Some shops fix it but unfortunatly how long it will last is unclear.
Mine got YLOD and each time it got fixed it lasted like 1 day.

it is isnt permanent a all the best is like amonth or 2 id get it running and take it to gamestop

I fixed mine back in february. And it actually just stopped working today. So I'm about to ad some thermal paste to get it working again. The method i used was the stick your whole motherboard in the oven method. It sounds dumb, I know. But it actually worked for me.

Also the best type of thermal paste to use is Artic Silver 5 Thermal Paste. Can be bought for about $10. I got mine from RadioShack

I'd buy a new PS3 and just put it my fat PS3 hard drive into it. I haven't gotten a YLOD so far.
