			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Trying to find the best solution how to fix your PS 3? Check out the information here: <b> <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fgoarticles.com%2Farticle%2FPS3-Reparer%2F3680294&sref=rss" target='_blank'>ps3 reparer</a></b></p>
<p>Practically everyday, a PS3 player faces the yellow light of death problem. The yellow light of death implies that something has gone wrong with the console of your PS3 and is not specific to any particular fault.</p>
<p>Before you run to the telephone and give Sony a call, you might need to try the steps below that will provide help to fix the problem.</p>
<p>Click here to read more on possible solutions to PS 3 problems: <b> <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fps3reparer.insanejournal.com%2F716.html&sref=rss" target='_blank'>ps3 reparer</a></b></p>
<p>1) Turn off your PS3. If you assume it has been caught by the heat, then give it some time to cool down and turn it on again.</p>
<p>2) Check out your PS3 and see if there any loose cable.</p>
<p>3) Attempt to put out the hard-drive, and put it back in. You might need to repeat this step two or three times for better results.</p>
<p>If the steps mentioned above didn&#8217;t give you the results you want, then consider these 2 following ways to fix your PS 3:</p>
<p>1. Ship your PS3 over to Sony</p>
<p>I&#8217;m one hundred per cent certain that you&#8217;ve already understood that when your PS3 is still under warranty, then you may get your PS3 repaired by Sony guys free of charge, but you must pay all the shipping fees. At the same time, when it&#8217;s no more under warranty, then you need to pay a high price of 150 US dollars. And you must wait practically 2 &#8211; 4 weeks to get your PS3 repaired and returned back from Sony. That is not all; your saved information will be wiped out because you&#8217;ll get a refurbished one.</p>
<p>2. Repair the yellow light of death with a tutorial guide.</p>
<p>Fixing the yellow light of death is a lot cheaper and safer; because you can easily repair your PS3 by your self with the right tutorial repair guide and you don&#8217;t have to pay one hundred fifty US dollars to Sony to get your PS3 fixed and returned back to you.</p>
<p>Hey guys, still having yellow light of death error on ps 3? Don&#8217;t freak out because a good PS 3 repair guide will show you easy methods to repair this problem. And reveal some cool bonuses that you do not want to miss. </p>

<p>Mr. Ortega created a mask that is infused with seeds that uses the CO2 and moisture in your breath to sprout, reducing your carbon footprint and making you look like some kind of freak with moss on your face. Of course, when you are done you could always just compost the mask, or plant it somewhere. I do think that if this product ever comes to market, they are totally missing out on the name though. </p>

<p>Would you be willing to pay an extra dollar or two per month for Xbox Live if you were able to watch live TV on it? That&#8217;s what Microsoft and News Corp. execs <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bloomberg.com%2Fapps%2Fnews%3Fpid%3D20601103%26%23038%3Bsid%3DastES33mJmkE&sref=rss">are currently contemplating</a>, with the two companies in talks over bringing a &#8220;young, male&#8221; channel to XBL. Now, this is all rumor and speculation, so no need to freak out if you&#8217;re diametrically opposed to the idea.</p>
<p>The idea is to bring a channel to XBL in order to figure out a new way to get people to pay for Hollywood&#8217;s greatest whatever. Nothing wrong with that, I guess, so long as it&#8217;s made optional: I sure as heck don&#8217;t want to be forced to pay even one more penny for the privilege of watching, I don&#8217;t know, cool skateboard tricks, car crashes, or women jumping on trampolines à la The Man Show. I have zero interest in watching that.</p>
<p>And here&#8217;s a bit more gossip: apparently Conan was in talks with starting some sort of XBL channel before <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.crunchgear.com%2F2010%2F04%2F12%2Fconan-gets-a-show-on-tbs%2F&sref=rss">he agreed to go to TBS</a>.</p>

OCZ, purveyor of fine system components (and <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.crunchgear.com%2F2010%2F04%2F13%2Fram-hits-a-new-low-newegg-selling-1gb-of-for-1-99-after-mir%2F&sref=rss">super cheap ones</a>), wants you to know that you can have as much DDR3 as you like &mdash; no more stacking up DIMMs up in your measly four slots for a paltry total of 8GB. No, they have doubled the capacity to 4GB/DIMM, although I seriously doubt the average system builder will find it <em>that </em>liberating.</p>
<p>Generally the rule is to have several smaller DIMMs rather than one or two big ones. High density modules have a higher risk of errors and are slower in general, having longer latencies and forcing more data through the same interface. Big DIMMs are the leading cause of RAM bottlenecks. Or not, I don&#8217;t know. The new modules are 1333Hz but also have 9-9-9-20 timings, which is a bit slow.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re a RAM freak, <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ocztechnology.com%2Fproducts%2Fdesktop-memory%2Fddr3%2Fvalue%2Fgold-series%2Fdual-channel-ddr3%2Focz-ddr3-pc3-10666-8gb-gold-edition.html&sref=rss">these 4GB modules</a> will be available soon, although no pricing information is available right now. <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Ftechreport.com%2Fdiscussions.x%2F18798&sref=rss">As Tech Report points out</a>, 2&#215;2GB kits cost a little under $120 right now, so you&#8217;ll probably see it debut at somewhat more than that, though probably below $150.</p>

<small>This is an actual photo of a gang of 16-year-olds storming the ratings board. Or not.</small></p>
<p><a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.crunchgear.com%2Ftag%2Fstarcraft-ii%2F&sref=rss"><i>StarCraft II</i></a> has tentatively been given <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.koreatimes.co.kr%2Fwww%2Fnews%2Ftech%2F2010%2F04%2F133_64287.html&sref=rss">an Adults Only (18+) rating in South Korea</a>, causing <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.crunchgear.com%2Ftag%2Fblizzard%2F&sref=rss">Blizzard</a> a certain amount of consternation. Blizzard has 30 days to appeal the rating. If you think that volcano caused chaos and mayhem, you obviously aren&#8217;t familiar <i>StarCraft</i>&#8217;s significance in South Korea.</p>
<p>The game is practically an industry all to itself over there, giving rise to computer cafés called <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FPC_bang&sref=rss">bangs</a>. For as little as $0.50 an hour, a gamer can kill an hour of his or her day playing that most popular of games in <i>StarCraft</i>.</p>
<p>Well, that&#8217;s how it used to work. Should the Adults Only rating stick, untold numbers of teens will find themselves without access to one of the biggest sequels <i>of all time</i>. Italics mean business.</p>
<p>Keep in mind that all of the above information is, at the very best, second-hand, as I&#8217;ve never been to South Korea, nor have I played <i>StarCraft</i> for any significant amount of time.</p>

<p>Call me crazy, but Web sites usually work best when they&#8217;re online. Nobody knows this better than we do here at CrunchGear, where the site is down a good 20 percent of the time. But at the very least you&#8217;re not paying for our crummy service, unlike the poor <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Ffoxsoccer.rayv.com%2F&sref=rss">FoxSoccer.tv</a> customers. Fox wants $45 per season for online access to a whole host of content, including live games from all over the world. It&#8217;s really not a bad service when it works, but <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.epltalk.com%2Ffoxsoccer-tv-subscribers-miss-first-half-of-barca-v-arsenal%2F17602&sref=rss">when it doesn&#8217;t work</a> people freak out, and rightfully so.</p>
<p>As already <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.crunchgear.com%2F2010%2F04%2F07%2Fmessi-you-know-youre-good-when-people-compare-you-to-a-playstation%2F&sref=rss">mentioned</a>, FC Messi beat Arsenal yesterday in the second leg of the quarter final of the Champions League. FC Messi now plays Inter in the semi-final. It was a monstrously big game, but if you were trying to watch it on FoxSoccer.TV you were greeted with an error message for the entire first half of the game. &#8220;The connection has timed out.&#8221; Super.</p>
<p>Nothing is more infuriating than trying to be a good guy, paying for a service than can easily be replaced by a pirated stream, and then running into a wall.</p>
<p>It doesn&#8217;t reflect well on Fox, with all of its money, that it can&#8217;t run a Web site when it&#8217;s most needed. Nobody&#8217;s logging onto FoxSoccer.tv Monday at midnight, but during the final stages of the Champions League? It simply needs to work, end of.</p>
<p><a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=21261X792902&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.epltalk.com%2F&sref=rss">EPL Talk</a>, a fine site that I read regularly, mentions that Fox is currently looking for Broadband Product Manager. Maybe this person can sort out the site&#8217;s issues.</p>
<p>Again, this is particularly onerous because there are so many &#8220;pirate&#8221; streams out there on every single match day that it takes a truly pious person to elect to pay for a service that they could otherwise get for free. You pay for a service and expect it <i>to work</i>, you know?</p>
