I\'ve got the SCPH-30001, well today I\'m gonna start trying to trade it in places, one of the places has to have a retarded worker that falls for it, if it doesn\'t work today, I\'ll go back right around the 24th

Not had any trouble with mine but wondering is it ok to use a standard DVD lens cleaner or is there a nice expensive Sony one?

The same thing happened to me, except it would only play dvd movies and games. Not cd games or PSX games so I just sent it out to get fixed and it\'s been fine ever since. But yeah, it\'s expensive

Yours should be alright, only the original versions have been messing up, well mines working now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, I sprung 10 bucks for a laser lens cleaner and now it works, I still don\'t see how the dust prevented dvd movies from playing but not everything else, oh well it works now so I\'m not complaining

YAY!!! :bounce: I\'m so happy for you!!! Dust is the biggest PS2 enemy of them all. The fan draws it in, and with all the breathing slots it\'s easy for it to get in. Like I said before mine was ruined by dust(I\'m pretty sure) so you have to make sure you keep it closed up when it\'s not in use. And clean the lens reguarly.

You should be a-ok, cuz\' most problems seem to occur with the launch systems.

I got one out of the GT2 package. But got Madden 2002 instead of GT2. Thank god :) .

Do what I do to prevent that awful dust.....
    1. Take a shirt that you never wear anymore...
    2. Place the shirt over the sleeping console...
    3. Whenever you play a game, take it off, and when done put it back on.
    4. Dust your room! lol...


There.... I\'ve had a shirt over mine since I got mine and I haven\'t gotten any problems.... Oh and the fan of the console still has that fresh smell... you know the plastic smell...

BTW - I got mine when I registered here....

USE MY METHOD... I already told Bladez about it... and made him do it... his console is now dust free..:)

I found this old white cotton-padded t-shirt. I got a blue marker and wrote, "PS2\'s Favorite Shirt" on it.

It\'s kool as hell. I wanna get it some pants too. Anyone know where I can find some pants for it?

I\'m not being sarcastic.
