I have the CECHA01 model which is the first I think and my PS3 is working perfectly. As I was saying earlier, it may have something to do with me fixing the YLOD and unplugging the mobo battery for a few hours which killed the clock.

if your Bios has not battery to remember it's state you have to RE-ENTER the Setting's, now when you did put it back together what was the first thing it asked,

to enter time and date? and right now you can get on line and access the PSN?

have you logged off and tryied to log back in since you did this?

When I put it back together and turned it on, that was the first thing it asked for. I entered time and date and started playing as usual. Now, this was a few days ago when I did this. I was logged on around 10 a.m. CST yesterday. I didn't log back on until last night to play COD with my roomate. He also has a 60gb, however, his will not work. Then I started looking online and saw all this news on it.
