mine is a CECHE06|singapore 80GB unit, bought around August 2007. PS3 goes auto-shutdown (blinking red light) when playing; Dragon Age, Guitar Hero World Tour.. sad.gif just got my Dragon Age yesterday.. problem happens during a coversation part somewhere in the castle.. GHWT.. when ever i press start to play a song.. this is really frustrating.. anyways, a simple touch on the start sensor revived the ps3..

That is the sign that YLOD is coming because ur ps3 is overheating already. My ps3 just YLOD yesterday night because I bought Uncharted 2 lately and only when i play Uncharted 2 it turns off and blink red lights, other games no problem, after a few times, boom, YLOD yesterday after it auto-turns off.

No problem.  We need people like you to keep the market competitive.  Those shop asking for RM300-RM400 for fixing YLOD is pure nonsense.  No changing of parts yet the ridiculous price.

I think it happens more often to the early adopters of the ps3, since nowadays the games utilize more of the ps3, the earlier versions of the ps3 can only take that much. Therefore resulting in overheating and YLOD. The slim has just launched for a few months, who knows what problem will strike after they reach a few years old and more and more canggih games come out, hopefully there wont be any problems.

Last while playing Uncharted 2, my PS3's fan suddenly spin very fast and crash(power off and the red light blinking). 

The YLOD strikes again?  So I power down the PS3 and turn it back on immediately and to my surprise it turn on normally with a message that my PS3 is not turn off properly.  I then remove the disc and play other HDD based game and so far no problem after that.

Did anyone experience this before?  Is it just the game crash or its early sign of YLOD gonna happen again?

I think is Uncharted 2 causing ps3 to overheat again, if your PS3 is revived from YLOD I recommend not to play Uncharted 2 for more than 2 hours straight, 1-2 hours stop for 15-20 mins to rest. Few more times turn off and red light blinking might cause YLOD to strike again.

I was playing U2 again just now and it crashes the PS3 again.  Just shut it off and red blinking light.  I then restart the PS3 and it booted ok but then crash again less than a minute later.  I then decide to remove the USB fan and restarted the PS3.  Then I just use a normal big fan to blow to the front of the PS3 and play about an hour of Wipeout HD Fury and no problem.  Then I put it uncharted 2 again and have play about 2 hrs now still no problem. 

I think the USB fan is not working very well and causing the PS3 to crash. So I think its not advisable to turn the PS3 to a disco machine with the ble USB fan. tongue.gif

Haha.... Disco PS3 failed...
