My fat PS3 is currently refusing to work. When I turn it on the fan spins up for a second then stops. The console won't display anything on screen nor does the HDD access light blink. I can get it to boot into Safe Mode at which point I actually get something displayed but any options I choose result in the same thing as when I first turn on the console. (Haven't try the system restore option since I have CFW installed.)

Any one know what the problem and it's solution maybe? I was using to play through some games using Retroarch last week and had no issues.

Sorry to resurrect such an old thread, but have you tried to reset the HDMI settings by holding down the power button on boot? Sniped a CECHA for $40 with such a issue, easy fix
