Dear all sifu-sifu & guru-guru, I'm new to ps3, just borrow from my uncle. A few months ago, I still can play the ps3, but yesterday night, when I wanted to play God of War collection, at the beginning scene, right after the game started for 2 minutes, the ps3 will shut down itself and "beeeeeeep".
So I google about that problem, some says it's YLOD, but I hope it's not. Because I'm still able to turn on the system, still can navigate at the front page, just cannot play games more than 2 minutes. Besides, I observe about it, when it shuts down, "beeep...." then it has yellow light first, then only red light keep blinking. So what problem was that ? I checked the fix for YLOD, it's too complicated for me, have to unscrew everything and take out all the parts, i dont want to risk it as im just a student.

I even try to adjust my screen resolution, from 1080i to 1080p, still cannot play more than 2 minutes. Then i switch to 720p and the 3xx ( don't remember the resolution ), but this time the game works. Weird ! I got no idea what problem was that. At first, i thought it was because my tv can't support 1080, but my tv was a sony bravia, the manual says it supports 1080.....a few months ago, I played uncharted 2 with 1080i resolution also no problem, but this problem just happened since last night.
Really hope that someone could help me and give me advise as I'm just a newbie. Thank you. Appreciate it.
