Unhappy UPDATE : Console Shuts OFF after removing IHS

Hi,

When, I switch on my ps3 slim, nothing comes to the tv. So I did a reset by holding the power button for ( 6 sec's ), but it didn't work

I did try to enter the FSM,but nothing shows up on TV, the one thing I noticed is that whenever I switch on the console, the fan fires up ( it rotates at its max speed )

So, I replaced the thermal compund with Arctic Cooling MX-4, the result still is same.

Please HELP

EDIT : Here's a video of the problem

UPDATE 2 : Re-flowed the both RSX and Cell B/E Chips( Without removing the heat spreader ), Results are the same, fan fires up and RLOD.

UPDATE 3 : THIS IS what happens after removing IHS ( RSX and CELL ) and applying new thermal compund
