im having a weird YLOD problem 80gb fat model that has gotten a hardrive change.
usually when i start a game, it loads and scans trophies for the loading game. there it goes YLOD to red blinking bar, but after turn on again ps3 turns on again and repair/restore/backuping
(the one that ps3 does when you have a power outage and didnt close the console correctly),
there after the repair/restore/backupi can use it with no problems, until i shut it off and wait for 3 hours and play again
it happens always when i turn off the ps3 for a long time then use it. but when does the weird YLOD and turn on again for reformat. it is actually good to go.
sort of a warming up or something? but i have to do this all the time to play the ps3 and it has become annoying.
is this a problem of the HDD?
your PS3 is dying and you can't do anything by yourself about it, the only clear solution you can do is to buy a new one worth 12k and sell the broken one for less than um...4k since its not even worth shit anymore like u said.
The other dodgy solution is to have it reballed for 4k and pray that it doesn't kick the bucket again anytime soon.
