Ps3 Freezes/won't Boot Up?
« on: March 09, 2008, 12:40:00 PM »

My PS3 I bought for dirt cheap (which now I find out why, becuse it freezes up), has been acting screwy lately. If plugged into a power strip it froze a LOT and after 1-5 mins after turning on. Plugging it into an outlet with no power strip, it would work fine, untill recently.

Now it won't even boot up, the yellow light turns on for about 30 seconds, at most, then beeps 3 times and the red light flashes. Trying different power outloets doesn't help/work anymore, so Im guessing it's a power supply failure but if anyone has any other info on what this is, please do share so I don't waste $100 on a new PSU and find out its the cell that crapped out on me sad.gif
