what kind of screw is that at the security seal there? cause i cant unscrew that screw with my screwdriver.

im on a 40gb version ps3

[BicycleNinjaSays]

@alivemanbankai It might be a hex screw... pay close attention to the type driver I say to use---you don't wanna strip it.

[ni99anugget]

just fixed mine to. Very good tutorial. If i make donation of $25 will i get the fan posted to United Kingdom?

[BicycleNinjaSays]

@ni99anugget I don't really like these fans anymore but thanks anyways bro... go on eBay and get one specifically for the PS3 (blows into the back).. the one I bought first was really for a laptop --- still will help though.

im not going to use it just incase! ive taken the ps3 to pieces and cleaned the cpu's just waiting for the same compound i ordered as you had. ill let you know if it works!

[BicycleNinjaSays]

@quarky123456 It should work perfectly... but take it easy on your system. Mine has started scaring me again. Try and get a good cooling fan that blows directly into the system... if it breaks again after that -- I don't know what to say.

props, thank you for the video. Was bummed when mine suddenly died, but an hour later and your videos, and my 40gig old school brick is up and running again.

[Digikid2007]

Sorry to ask but what it the name of the music that you used?

[Kazmace1]

world BEST SOLUTION BUY A NEW PS3 SLIMLINE

[FoundMyLove84]

@alivemanbankai The screw driver you are asking about is called a TORX T10 screw driver and if you have a slim ps3, you'll need a torx T8 screw driver to open the console. 8) I've done my own fair share of ps3 repairs and I'm gonna open my own little ps3 ( and maybe xbox360) repair service. 8)

Thank you very much for the PS3 tutorial, saved me alot of cash and worked flawlessly.

[kevj87]

thx for this guide, just used it and my ps3 is working again. Backing up my data now. I am still probably gonna upgrade to a slim, but I am grateful that i can get my data backed up.
