If you have turned on your PS3 and instead of starting up you get a red screen with lots of error codes everywhere then this article will help you out and tell you how you can fix it.
First thing that you can do is try a few checks and see if we can fix this without having to perform repair on the system or sending it away.
You can take out the HDD drive and then put it back on your console again, sometimes data gets caught in the system and this will help reset it again.
If that does not work then unplug all of the cables and plug them back in again and restart your console.
As a final check you can turn it off and unplug at the mains and leave for about 30 mins before you try again.
If that does not work you will need to stop the heat build up that is causing this hardware error and you can either send it in and they will repair it for you.
The thing that may put you off about this is the repair charge and the fact that it can take 4 weeks to fix the PS3 Red Screen of Death Error.
The other way people get the console fixed is take it to a local repair shop although a word of warning about this having ran a repair shop for a number of years I know that people try online methods that might not be the best and in some cases charge more than the Sony repair fee!
So if you are thinking of this way of getting the console fixed it is probably not your best bet unless of course you know someone personally.
The other way that you can get the red screen of death fixed on the PS3 is to do it yourself and this is sort of like the PS3 Repair shop method except you will be carrying out the task.
It is actually not as difficult as you may think and you will find that it only takes about 1 hour to complete the fix and you will be back up and running.
The only thing that you have to make sure is you get a good PS3 Red Screen Fix and one that gives you videos, can be completed with a few household items so you don't need anything technical and of course a full guarantee.
