My 40GB PS3 started giving me the yellow light of death yesterday. I am considering doing the fix myself, following the YouTube video.
How do I know if I am qualified? I'm a Telecommunications major, so I spend a lot of time around audio/video equipment, and I'm really good at hooking stuff up, but I've never actually taken anything apart before. The video instructions look pretty clear, but I'm a little nervous about my PS3 being in 12 pieces on my bedroom floor.
What kind of thermal grease should I use? Will this work?:
