Sony - Is my PS3 dying? - View Post

Never shut down the PS3 by using the switch in the back, you can ruid the HDD by doing that. If your PS3 locks up, hold the power button down for 5 seconds, it forces a shutdown. Otherwise, I dont know what is wrong with your console, game lock-ups happen all the time for any console I have ever had. Dont know about the output thing, never had that problem. The shock thing is probably just built up static.
