i see a lot of finger print on his console

i think that video is true.

Mine one (fat 40GB) which encounter YLOD is like this.

You see. When you press the power button, it will flash green 1st, then flash yellow, then blinking red, until you press power button again it will become red still (standby mode).

Stop making those assumption if you never encountered YLOD before. Anyone has this problem before will know this video is true. The dude press the power button is to stop the blinking red to made it to standby mode (red still), so that he can show you yellow light scenario when he try to on the console again.

really? got like det on slim bro? got bling2 yellow like det kaa if do like det? how cum today i feel so noobs huh

i tot da same laa colt...wuts da differs?

ps3 slim more panas compared to xbox jasper..
(eventhough in aircond room)
hehe..
coz i have both consoles at home..
so feel more secure playing xbox..

@seanwong - its true that ive never encountered ylod, but i did clarify in my early statement with "iianm". geez..

no offense bro. Apologize if my posts did sound like a bit aggressive.

Perhaps those who have encountered YLOD can share my view on the video.

Arggg that is the feeling when your console automatic shut down while you playing games, start blinking with red light, and your 1st thought is WTH happening and trying to press the power button, where it goes back to standby mode (red still), then you press again it turn green and you thought you can play again.

Then within a sec the console flash with yellow light, then red light, then blinking red light again. No matter how many times you try it just repeat the same thing, YOU CAN'T ON THE CONSOLE!! You just realize that there is something wrong on your console and here the fear begin..

the frustration is really unbearable Until todate i still can remember how i feel when i encountered YLOD the 1st time...

I have the same thought like you before i encountered YLOD, when i watch those video previously ("this must be fake"; "Sony product is reliable and unlike Microsoft one"; "Maybe those ppl are overplay the games too much thus overheat la" and etc.), but now i know it is genuine case...

Just to share with you bro

The thing is...Nelson as well as Tim also claimed that the YLOD is due to recent fw update that corrupt my CPU and GPU thus giving wrong instruction to cut-off the cooling fans thus lead to overheat and YLOD...

But i saw your guys post here said that it is a general hardware failure, nothing related to fw update...

Really i dont know what's the real cause of my console that just bought 1 1/2 years....more suffering is...i already bypass the warranty period

Looks like i gonna save money to buy MY Slim, just like what you said...

itu la pasal
