So my ps3 fat wasn't working so i changed the thermal paste and put it back together and then a couple of days later i heated it up with a blow dryer because the last time i did it before i changed the thermal paste, it worked but only for an hour, when i press the button the light goes green, yellow then flashes red, idk what else to do and i think the problem might be that I didnt heat up the cpu and gpu before putting on the thermal paste, any suggestions

its a ps3 btw, also have you ever heard of the yellow/red ring of death because the cheap thermal paste that came with the old ps3 fat consoles is what causes it and to fix it you need to replace it

i just bought a new hard drive so its not that, but the problem is that it turns on and the loading screen comes on but then the fans get louder and it shuts off, that means that its overheating

Where do you place your PS3? That could be the cause
