My ps3 began acting strange it powered on, the fan would go crazy and it would flash off, I opened it up to find the thermal paste dried up, so added some artic silver thermal paste. it comes on now and stays on, it even reads and react to discs with the blinking lights, but I have no video and audio. Ive been using my rf adapter but I even tried on my hdmi cable. bought some new cables, reseted the settings, and it didnt even work. What is possibly going wrong?

this is a picture of the preowned mobo have, there are some wierd differnce from general 40gig mobo images. 1 noticable one is the metal piece on the far left side of the picture, which looks warpsed and battered. in the center is the rsx with left over artic silver on it, i even added a dab on the center component
