Hi,
New guy here, I have been reading the sticky topic about this but it seems the posts go from old to new to old so don't quite know which to follow.
My problem is my missus bought me a 160GB PS3 Slim from ASDA in December 2011 (17 Months ago), The past few months it's been full system crashing, Not on a regular basis at first, the odd time maybe once a week or once every 2 weeks. I put this down to overheating and gave the PS3 more space and cleaned the vents etc.
But since the last 2 weeks, whatever game is loaded, between 2-10 minutes of it loading up, I get a full system crash. So i cannot play any games at all or dvd's for that matter.
Spoke to Sony, did all the restoring and now it crashes even quicker. They have quoted me £110 for a refurbed replacement with only 3 months warranty.
Rung ASDA, spoke to 3 or 4 different people who seemed to be on auto-mode of saying 'We only give 12 month warranty'
Any help is appreciated.
