Definitely overheating. When I was talking to a Sony guy about it on the phone after my PS3 broke, as soon as I said that, he immediately knew it was over....

I assume the screen goes weird coloured when it stops working. I would advise doing what you can to copy off your data. If you send it to Sony, it is likely they will have some refurbished older consoles for you, assuming it is in guarantee

 

I really hope I can get a 60gb back. I'll just reinstall my 320 gb harddrive in the new system but it looks like my saves would be gone. It looks like I'll be losing my third place rank in the soul calibur special vs mode as well thanks to having to wait for 2 weeks. My disc is also stuck in the system. I hope sony sends it back.

Does anyone know if the friend's list is attached to the account or stored in the system flash drive?

 

Friends list is attached to the account

Can you not turn it on for even a minute? I would use that time to copy off the most important saves first

 

Nope it doesn't come on period now. I have backed up my data about a month ago when I switched hd's and the new data is still on my usb hd but would I be able to back up this same data into a new ps3?

 

yes, you should be able too

considering you can download saves.

Thanks. Now I just have to survive 14 days without my ps3
