yeah i rarely did any back ups as well.
I just need to get that damn heat gun.

Is Gilsky's guide pretty much the standard for getting ylod's back to life?

I followed it to the dime and it worked for me a number of times, although its not permanent and right now its not working anymore lol, so I cant stress how important it is when I say as soon as you can backup...BACKUP because you don't know how long the PS3 will last until it dies again.

Thanx @TizzyT for bringing me to this post, don't worry all of you covered the issue pretty efficiently.

Don't worry Dax23, everything is going to be fine!
If my best friend who's a girl can reflow and use Teensy to flash her console then you can do it for sure.

PS: Now that I mention it, it's sometimes that I don't get how some stereotypes got created in some stuff and in this case in gaming. Pretty like all of the girls I am friend with are average gamers, some of them own atleast 2 consoles, like one third of them play on daily basis, 2 of them are extremelly addicted to video gaming, one of them has her OWN minecraft server which is infact one of the top 3 worldwide, I won't reveal which one. Don't worry, they are not fat and ugly or silly or single. Also the types of games they play can vary from PES to Pokemon, for example I play constantly years now with my best friend Resident Evil 5, not really a female stereotype game.
Also me myself I do not fit to most stereotypes people put me, especially I don't fit to any stereotype in video gaming at all... XD

How many girls you heard of playing PES 2011 and flashing with Teensy their PS3s?
How many gays have you heard of playing Call Of Duty and Resident Evil 5?
Silly stereotypes...

PS #2: You got a boner huh?!
