Hi Guysm,
My beloved 60Gb PS3 (upgraded to 500Gb) turned off automatically whilst playing CODMW2 last night, with a Flashing Red light, turning it back on, it played for a few minutes then went again!
I left it overnight, then took out my hard drive and vacuumed all around the vents and hard drive slot, popped it back in but the same problem, was on for a few mins and then died again! NOW IT WONT EVEN TURN BACK ON!!
I replaced the 500Gb with the original hard drive, and this turned it on for about 10 secs, but then it froze again!! And now it wont turn on!!!
What is this RED FLASHING LIGHT PROBLEM? Is it a problem with the Motherboard or the PSU? [Obviously not the HDD, as that still works fine]
Will Gilksys guide fix it? http://wheretobuyps3.com/YLOD_fix.pdf
He also has step by step Youtube tutorial, but I am unsure this will fix it?? If it will I am happy to go out and buy the bits and bobs to give it a go myself!
Please can someone help me, I am in Yorkshire this weekend, then going back down south on Sunday! Is there anyone local who can help me?
BLOODY SONY, FIRST THE MILLENIUM BUG, NOW THIS
NOT HAPPY!!!
