I got ylod. Dead So theres a place in town that does ylod fixes for 50 and 79.  The 50 dollar one is the reflow option and the latter is the psu replacement option, which should i get and for the ylod victims that have had this my ut3 game is in there and i can't get it out.  To make matters worse they charge 50 for fixing the blu ray drive.  So, ylod victims, my game doesn't eject cause it shuts off immediately cause of the ylod, so is this normal or do i have to pay an additional 50 for them to fix it.  I would have asked them, but they charge 30 just to have an a**esment with it, yep, peace.  Oh and i need a response asap i want to send this in tomorrow, i mean today.

no ylod wont eject your game. your pretty much at a loss with that game unless you some how remove the disc by force or get the unit fixed. i had to toss both my ps3 and the ut3 copy that was in at the time. the same thing happened to me, wouldnt eject the game in time, would just turn back off after the yellow light. i just baught a new slim unit then paying the $200 it would of cost me..

No, actually i got ylod once, cleaned it, thought i fixed it, and a week or two later, i got it again, this time when i went to turn on the ps3.  I thought it was good when i cleaned it cause my fan noise was so low.  I actually thought i improved it, yep.

NOOOOOOOO!!
turn ur ps3 off from the back, hold down eject, now while your finger
is still on eject, turn your ps3 back on from the back. That is called a force eject.
If that dont work, then yes, your f.u.k.e.d.
Theres a vid on youtube that show you how to fix it yourself. ( ylod that is)
I did it and its pritty EZ. W/e u do, good luck bro.

Hmmmmmmmmmm. When i got ylod, force eject worked for me.
If it didnt for you, then MAYBE ur bluray is f***ed. just seems weird that your ps3
would get ylod and a bluray failure both @ the same time.
So i would open my ps3, and make sure that the bluray ribben isnt damaged.
When they fix the ylod, i think all will be fine but who knows??

imo, sony is dumb. Ylod has nothing to do with overheating and is a
hardware failure issue. Ex. Some dude who only used his ps3 once a week
got ylod and sony needed the 150$ charge, F.U.K that! They should fix em 4 free.
Then again, im just pissed it happened to me. Lol

Mine broke (YLOD) and I sent it to a repair company (but its UK so no good for you) and it's fully working again. UT was stuck in there for me also but since they fixed it the disc came straight out, no problems or anything.

This is bull$hit. All these expensive PS3's breaking down. I mean I never heard of anyone's PS2 breaking, mine still works after 9 years. Hell my cousin's Sega Genesis is still working. Seems like electronic products are purposely built not to last anymore. What a rip!
It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.
