maybe finally after years of abuse my fat boy is going to bite the dust
i turned it on today and everything was a little quafey, the screen was pink and green i couldn't see any other colours, all the icons etc.
i messed around with hue on the capture device and on the TV, it changed for one display but not when looking through the other (things appeared differently on the PS3 hdmi input than the PC hdmi input, preview window for my capture device).
so i reset the video settings by holding down the power button until it beeps twice (whilst turned off). and it came back on black and white with no sound.
tried didn't hdmi cable and didn't port, reset settings on tv and capture device etc.
is this how they all go? is this how the mighty fall!?! |

I have absolutely no idea. Did you check that all of the connections were seated properly?
All I can say is - At least PS3`s are cheap these days.

yeh it's all as is, funny thing is I cleaned my room yesterday and before heading out sorted a few ISK transactions, turned everything off at the wall, came back today 24 hours later and it's like this.
Probably all those years of overheating and freezing haha.
Yeh you're right there mate if I can find anywhere in town (seriously) that sells the super slim and an SSD I'll get sorted tomorrow. |

I've never done it but it sounds like you may have booted it up in safety mode? o.O
1st thing I would check is your video and audio cables.
2nd thing, check the receptacles for those cables, maybe a little connector or node thingy is out of whack.
Usually there is a yellow light indicator to show there is a problem if I'm not mistaken. I actually have two ps3's and I've never had any problem out of them after all the years of abuse I've given them.

nah it's not in safe mode, I know all about that unfortunately, all the error messages, resetting, factory settings, restore file system, I've had to do so much to keep this thing alive.
yeh i had yellow light once when the ps3 was overheating a few months ago, has never done it before then.
thinking of just buying super slim ps3, SSD, and trying that out with dust, |

yeh i've been going onto video output settings a lot and switching between HDMI and component, I'm not using composite.
PS3 was bought in 2009 so I don't think they'd help haha can't even remember where I bought it from.

HEADS UP!! No joke in what I'm about to tell you here.
My sweetie is one of the last loving collectors of the fattie-model Ps3s. From CECH-A through the G models. He's practically a nerd about these cute consoles--there's a whole community out there who chat and study "the fattie".
If you've jiggled the video cable connections from your console to your monitor and had no improvement, then it is definitely your video-graphics package starting to shut down. The unit may stay like that for a week or even 2 months before your PS3 crashes (usually LYOD). It may also only behave badly like this when playing Dust, and will let you play other games without any sign of problems. But even so, your PS3 fattie is on its last glorious phase.
The good news is, it gives you time to get a new PS3 (or used PS3 fattie), and quickly "transfer your PS3's mind to a fresh new Clone".
Don't wait too long to do it, or you may cry when that fattie dies.
Universe of good wishes for the 49, especially CCP Eterne...

Alright so you're saying if I guess what number you're thinking of I'll get 110 Millikn ISK right?
Is it 42? Of course it isn't! But since I have now said it, you are thinking about 42 hence my guess is that you're thinking of 42 and I will be correct. I shall collect my ISK in cash XD

SSD is supposed to be awesome.
I'd just crack it open if I were you, if there was a problem with over heating you may have a short some where. I mean, it couldn't hurt to take a look around in there if you plan on buying a new one anyway right?
