My heart broke today....my original PS3, which I bought on launch day, suddenly froze while watching a movie. *sigh* I always kept/keep all of my systems, including the PS3, as clean, dirt-free, and well ventilated as possible but I guess the PS3 just didn't wanna be with me anymore...
As this has happened, I have been reading up on reballing or reflowing PS3 units to get them to work again. I am hoping there is someway to get it running again so I can at least try to save and transfer stuff from my PS3 hard drive to an external one. I'd rather NOT lose my backwards-compatible PS3 but...you know. Does anyone know how to do either of these? Are there any third-party repair shops that are good and can do it and not lose my data from my hard drive?
Any info. would be greatly appreciated in my sad time of bereavement...
