Title: NEED HELP!!! PS2 Hardware problem!
Post by: on March 23, 2001, 10:40:05 AM
I\'m having problems with my PS2.  When I try to play games sometimes it won\'t even play them.  It goes the same for PSone and PS2 games.  Its even worse for DVD movies it won\'t play them?  I tried the diagnostic on the system and it says disc read error.  Has anyone else had this problem?  I kind of remember someone with a similar post.  I\'m still under warranty but that\'s my last option.  I want to do everything possible to correct the problem. Any advice would be appreciated =)

Oh yeah by the way I\'ve never abused my system in any way shape or form.  I\'ve tried my system vertically and horizontally no effect.  Cleaned my games, etc.  I suspect maybe my laser is off target because it can read the games sometimes.  Once again thnx!!!

Same exact thing happened to me bro. Except my warranty is over. What I did was search eBay for broken PS2s and I found 4 auctions that were selling for around $250-$280 so I put my broken PS2 up on eBay for 7 days with a reserve of $200, so instead of paying the $126 Repair Costs I am just going to use my estimated $260 towards a brand new one. For those interested in my auction, use eBays \'Search Items By Seller\' feature. My eBay account name is PTGaryF

Thanks
