argh im so sad right now, so i need a USB to USB cable to get my stuff of, what happens if it won't turn back on after using a fan? my stuff is gone? :O also also how do i get LBP2 out? NOOOO

If it doesnt turn back on, LBP2 is stuck...I dont know how you can get it out. Also, if it doesnt turn on a USB to USB wont do anything, however, all your data is on the harddrive, which is removable and transferrable to a new PS3.

The new PS3 will format the old hard drive if you want to use it, so you must use another method to get your data out.

I recommend the hairdryer method and then use a lan cable to connect the old PS3 to the new PS3 and select a back up option in the system settings of your old PS3. That will move all of your data to your new on, including demos and other stuff

I'm not sure about this theory, but what about putting the PS3 hard drive into a HDD docking station? Will it recognise it as an external hard drive?
