Try to hold the power button for a longer time till you hear multiple beeps this will start the ps3 in a different mode

It sounds like a brick but i am not sure unless i can see the ps3 and it could also be a component failing or sth

You should try to boot into recovery mode to see what happens. For that, push down the power button and hold it down until the ps3 shutdown, then wait like 2 seconds, push it down again and hold it until you hear 3beeps in a row I think? If your ps3 can stay in recovery without shutting down, Its might only be a software related problem solved by reinstalling the Firmware. If it shut down by itself in recovery, either it overheat or your ps3 is bricked :|
