Well if it keeps giving you the yellow light then your PS3 is done,and sadly so are your saves.First unplug it for a while then plug it back in and turn it on.If not then I am sorry but your PS3 has officially died.

Well here is the warrenty page.You do not lose your profile considering the fact that you can recover it onto your new PS3 when you get one.Your game saves are gone though.Sorry.

as long as you know your sign in ID and password, you can still download the things you have bought from the PS store from a different PS3

Happened to me, it's the YLOD, your PS3 is dead, give it to Sony and pay extra if you have to fix it. No your online profile will not get deleted.

I'm sorry dude I really am, you will lose all your save data but your online profile will be secure but look on the plus side, you get to buy a brand new Ps3! or you could send it in, less pricey but not as gratifying.

To be honest, I doubt it. I would be very surprised if you recieve a 60gb in return. There just aren't that many of them left. You might recieve an 80gb if they don't just fix your current one.
