i took the big step of disassembling my ps3 60gig today and am getting a donar one tomorrow (wont read discs).
1/should i take the power supply from the donar and try it in the YLOD.
2/ should i try the heating of the motherboard chips?
3/ should i just swap the blue ray drive from YLOD to the donar? if so is it a case of just changing the little motherboard on the blueraydisc, and away we go????
I only want to know from people who have had problems with YLOD?
or with problems with ps3 not reading discs
I can send either of the consoles to sony for repair, but would quite like to repair myself.

In other words what should be the first thing i try.
my YLOD is red green yellow red Beep Beep Beep!
come on ann robinson help

Many thanks.
its actually very easy to take apart!
its just a matter of putting the screws together with cellotape and labelling them stage1 etc.
hope yours gets back soon.
