PoorSucker Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Take it to a computer repair shop and ask them to clean it. Probably dirty inside that makes it turn off because off heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devdrinker Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 In BKK there are a few repair places (i.e. that actually have some confidence to break these things open). Pantip Plaza 2nd floor or 3rd has a few shops, but if rather avoid the hassle of people trying to sell your porno every 50 metres then basement floor of Seacon Square have a few places too. There is a guy in Big C next to store entrance (upstairs) that sells PS/Xbox but not sure if he does repairs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHJ Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 i'm the person joe was refering to, does your ps3 turns off immediately after being turned on with a yellow or red circle or is it just after few minutes/hours of game? if it's the first case the unit is dead, if it's the second case, a cleanup could be the solution.

brzy Posted April 17, 2011 Author Share Posted April 17, 2011 well it started as being after 1 particular game (marvel vs capom 3) but now its turning itself off after 5-10 mins. No yellow light (YLOD) its just gone bonkers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHJ Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 then this should be the solution : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGS28OBL4ms actually he's not joking it's really the sony way to clean up the ps3 vents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
