soo my ps3 got a ylod but i fixed it with the heat gun and thermal compound method
after that it worked fine i played mw2 blops but later when i got bored i tried played fallout new vegas it said i needed to install a patch i picked ok install it then froze i waited an hour so i turned it off and tried installing again it kept freezing at the installation i turned it off but this time it froze on the xmb ![]()
it then started showing ylod symtoms so again i reflowed it but this time it worked for good
so thats fixed now the real problem:
i connect my hdmi into the tv and turn it on without the top but nothing shows up on the tv just blacknes "/ (even with the top nothing btw)
-controller wont connect to the ps3 not even with the usb
-the light indicators of the hdd and the wifi
-no audio or video
-cant access recovery mode
sooo any ideas on what i can do to fix this?
