Sony has done something awesome by launching PlayStation to the real world. It is like a boon for most of the gamers out there. Gaming was never such fun before Sony PlayStations. I am myself a big PS gaming lover and I almost love everything that Sony offers in the gaming console. However there are few glitches that Sony need to cover soon otherwise competitors like Xbox might become stronger and might even clinch the title.
Here I will discuss some of the shortcomings that I have noticed so far with Sony PlayStation. It includes problems like YLOD, Cinavia, Over Heating etc.
Most common problems with Sony PlayStations
Below are some of the common problems that every PS gamer will face during his gaming carrier.
1. YLOD
YLOD stands for Yellow Light of Death and is a very common problem with PlayStations. It starts with yellow dim light blink and then suddenly your console switches off and nothing appears on the screen. YLOD can be tackled with proper care of the entire console unit. It mostly include inner hardware (circuitry part). Heat is one of the main reasons that cause the loosening of soldering connection which ultimately raise the issue like YLOD and few others. If you want keep your console away from such problems then please do handle it properly.
2. Temperature
Temperature can be considered as the main villain behind most of the problems related to PlayStations and other common gaming consoles. Rise in temperature will surely make unwanted changes in the inner circuitry and if the inner circuitry is damaged or changed then console will start giving unusual problems.
You can avoid excess temperature by operating the console at normal/suggested temperature range (25-30 Degrees) and cleaning the air vents properly.
3. Cinavia Codes
Ideally this protection was made for good and was supposed to protect copyrighted content. It works well in most of the cases but in rare scenarios it pops out warnings like Cinavia message code 3 for homemade videos even. In such cases you need to handle it externally.
4. RLOD
RLOD stands for Red Light of Death and is on the same lines as Yellow Light of Death. However it is more dangerous than YLOD. It comes rarely but if you face RLOD anytime than you will need to see a technician unfortunately (or you can try some tutorials/products available over internet).
These are the most common warnings that you can face with Sony PlayStation. Please do let us know if you need any help on any of the above warnings/threats.
