But It could also cause it to work for a long time and prove to be a good investment.
No, some people had party buses did but my group didn't.
We did for the other prom though, that was niceCommon Sense is not so Common

This is a lot of different problems. Most common is a malfunction in the CPU/GPU.
In most cases the solder on the GPU or CPU cracks just enough to cause a problem. I managed to fix this twice by heating up the motherboard to about 200 degrees with a heat gun. This melts the solder just enough to rebond the connections. Its a sketchy procedure but it does work. On my second attempt I added washer to the heatsink clamps to apply more pressure to the CPU/ GPU becuase I noticed areas in the thermal paste that never made contact.Common Sense is not so Common

I'm not an electronics repair guy at all...but my bro-in-laws sounds like a power supply issue...right? I assume you can find that stuff on ebay...

It does sound a little crazy though...
That's why I'm buying one too, blue ray in my bedroom is going out, so getting one. Of course the GF is moving back in so now I have her blue ray as well... oh well. I'll move the PS3 into my Man cave as soon as I get that tv set up...Originally posted by G-MONEYIt hurts me to say it but go OU but only for this weekend!!!!
