So like any other day, I was playing mw2, but the thing is while i was playing right in the middle of it the ps3 just shut down and then there was a red light blinking, i had no idea what it was and just pushed it, it returned to the normal red light like it was off, then i pushed it again and the ps3 started up with the message, that basically said this console wasn't turned off properly here's how, so i concluded that it was because the ps3 overheated this happen, so i made the room colder, and cleaned out a lot of dust from the ps3

Later after a couple of hours, i went back to play and after like 15 min of playing, the same thing happened again, it shut down with a blinking light, i pushed the button and it went back to normal, i pushed it again and it started up with the message, and then the xmb. The room i was playing in was cold, and the ps3 was clean

Why did this happen, and could it lead to yellow light, what could i do to possibly fix this.

O and it's a 40gb ps3

Pls and Ty

o and srry for making two thread/forum things out of this...
 
If it's just a red blinking light it just means it's overheating and it shuts itself off to cause any damage, nothing to worry about if you take good care of it, go and buy one of those fans that attach to it and cool it down like this
