PS3 Error never seen before. help?

Ps3 freezes and cuts out repeatedly. sometimes it lasts for hours, sometimes it lasts 10 seconds. i have a 60 gig ps3 that's over 2 and a half years old. i've had it semi apart hoping to see a massive dust build up or something, but nothing. Has anyone heard of this problem?

get a ps3 fan off amazon or ebay

@killa0833 not what the problem was. it's like half getting the yellow light of death, whatever solder is stuffed works sometimes. the yellow light of death cure fixed it.

if any1 knows how it can be fixed please tell me.

[samuelleonard]

@KA0SS1 fixed it! just the same problem as the yellow light of death. take it ALL apart and heat the motherboard with a heat gun for a few minutes and then very directly on the processor and graphics processor for about 3 or 4 minutes.
