This seems to be a reliable fix by @Timbo9876 and Consoletek. Tokens replaced without heat and an ultrasonic clean and a slow bake seems to work.

It's possible that the EE chip isn't getting enough power from the new tokens to work without a hitch. I've had my PS3 BC examined and it was found that the tokens used to replace the originals didn't have enough power to boot straight into PS2 without any issues below 40 but the power it WAS...

I'd say an actual PS2 would be preferable at those temps. Are your NEC tokens the stock ones or were they replaced?

Well if I'm going to be using it for the ps2 mode then i leave it at 28% to warm up and then load up a ps2 iso at 32% fan speed

Worked for me. The rules tab gave me a little bit of difficulty but I solved it thanks to the posts here

Thank you

@bguerville Please look into this when you have time thank you.

I cannot access the BGtoolset on my PS3 consoles but can on other devices. I was able to access the site yesterday on ps3 but not today. Everything works besides this website which says the page cannot be displayed (80710a06). I've tried everything at this point and will have to install HEN for...

Are you trying to play a European game by chance? If so try turning off the PS2 upscaler. If not, try instilling the latest Evilnat CFW again as it might cause your PS3 to have issues going into PS2 mode if you mess around with different emulator configs with say Ultimate Toolbox Yeah it's a...

So a slight update: After more testing the CELL temp seems to be the reason for the PS2 games running via the EE chip freezing at low temps. The RSX can be cold as you want but the CELL has to be at a minimum temp if you want to play PS2 games via HW BC. Also, @Timbo9876 you probably already...

Quick update: I've found a partial solution to my problem that might help others. Going into webman settings and put the fan speed for PS2 emulator to 25% and the minimum speed to whatever you desire. Now start a PS2 game from disc and it won't freeze and the fan will stay at whatever speed you...

I see a working PS3 CECHH in my area for cheap but the top case is cracked and I have a spare CECHG top case. Does anyone know if the G case will fit the H motherboard?

MX4 should do the job.

In my experience the temps with the aps 231 installed in a A00 are the same as the 226. I tested two aps 231 psu and results were the same. I assume a B00 would have similar results. As for the frankie mod you CAN do it to future proof it I suppose but at the moment seems redundant if it works...

Sounds like you need to change the thermal paste on your super slim. If you have then try a minimum speed of 30 - 34% and max of 60.
