Thanks
You have the Yellow Light of Death (YLOD). Read up on it in this thread.

Take it apart to try and fix it. Older model PS3’s are junk compared to the newer ones, and you’re better off just fixing this one if you can, if not, buy a new one
Some older PS3 models had very inefficient power supplies, the result is overheating.
The video card and CPU are overheating and this power supply is overheating.
This will cause solder cracking and in some cases motherboard warping.
So what do you guys suggest I do?
Buy a Slim.
