my 60 gig ps3 shut off on its own. but the red light was blinking. i shut it off from the back then turned it back on, then tried to eject my disc. the light came up green for a second and my ps3 tried to eject the disc but a yellowish white light came on for a half second. then it starting to blink red again.

You could probably take it somewhere to get it looked at to see what the problem is and if they can fix it they will for a price though.

Isn't the red light on the PS3 just mean that the power's off, not that it's dead?

This happened to me once, I was unable to find a solution. Luckily I had a warranty, so Playstation shipped me a new one.

Did you not give it plenty of ventilation like 1.5 ft of space around it without being enclosed? Did you keep the ventilations dust free?

thats what my ps3 does. but if i touch the eject button first. it will light up green. for 2 seconds. then try to spit out the disc, then blink a yellowish white color for half a second then go back to the red blinking light.

First thing, remove the hdd and see if it will boot up to the XMB. I know from personal experiences that a dead hard drive can also be the cause.

Do this and if it overheated it just needs to sit for a few hours to cool down before trying again. Also if it overheated you need to find out why it overheated.
