RIP Black Tank

Subject: RIP Black Tank March 31st 2012, 3:52 pm

I believe the day has come...My baby, My partner of 4 years, My big black tank, My ps3 80 gig appears to have passed on... I turned it on and the start-up light and sound came on but then the motor goes silent and the green light stays on, no picture, no sound....no life? If you guys know any PS3 CPR on this topic it would be much appreciated. Otherwise I dont know what ill do since I have 000000 USD to my name. (im letting her cool down and maybe try again in the AM)

When you gather up about 100 bucks, you can get it replaced right here alien

well my best guess would be redoing the thermal paste and reflowing.....probably a overheating problem
