Ah man that sucks. Sony can fix it but it'll be costly.

There are reliable tutorials online that show you how to fix it. This is handy if you're out of warranty. Plus, if you give it to Sony, they send out a replacement and you'll lose your game saves. 

If I have learned anything from my time working in the service industry it’s that for quite a few people, the basic theories behind the use of a toilet are absolute mysteries…

I glad this has never ever happened to me. I have the original 60GB PS3. The only issues I have is the some of my friends don’t show up or don’t show there last sign-in. This hashappened to me since last weekend.

My original 20GB PS3, the one that everyone said was crap, has had 0 hardware issues.. take that!!

man.. i can see Sony charging a lot for this, but like PS3 Freak said, SOny will trade it for a refurbished for free.. so thats probably your best bet.

just called sony, they said i can contact them again with a reference number, to get someone to collect my ps3 for free, and then i will recive a brand new ps3 of the same model for a price of £128, clearly cheaper than buying a new one soo i might just try it out… still cant believe this Angry lol

Im sure your account wont be lost . I mean im pretty sure its saved on Psn itself , since ive signed into my account off other Ps3s . Not to mention after deleting my first account a year ago i still have it as a friend on my PSN list haha .

I've got an original 60GB PS3 other than the occasional freezes it's been fine. Haven't had any of these problems with not showing friends last sign-in. I really hope I don't get that yellow light of death though!
