oh btw, did you push really hard on the tray when you hit the eject button?  you have to push real hard for that remedy to work.  that helps if it is off track, but if it needs calibration use the above tactic.

Or you could send it in to Sony to not risk damaging it even further.. :)

yes he could send it to Sony, but would that be any fun?  no it wouldn\'t.  And he\'s a man, and it is in our DNA to take stuff apart, and furrow our brows when we relize that the job is above our skill level, yet we continue to TRY and fix it until we break something, get annoyed and throw it against the wall.

Or you could take the Paul approach and sit around pissing and moaning about it in several random threads which have no relevance to your problems at all until someone just gets tired of your temper tantrums and buys you a new one just to get ya to STFU.

:rolleyes: @ Paul.. least he\'s doin it in console debate where it belongs now.


BTW: If your warrante is already expired.. jus go ahead and pop the top. If your motor is in good working condition and there\'s no problems with the DVD lens.. then it should be a snap to fix. I have absolutely 0 experience working on CD players.. and the same problem you\'re describing happened to my cousin\'s CD burner. I just poped it out.. took it apart.. realigned it back on track. Slapped it back together and it worked perfectly. Even without those two screws which are supposed to go... well I dunno where. I\'m still scratching my head over that one....

i\'m not sure but their might be a possibility that the game cd might not have been placed correctly and that it might have(the cd i.e) wedged itself in the tray. i dont know how to explain this in any other way but i can tell u that it almost happened to me once but i pressed the eject button in time.

Yeah, thats what I figured when he said there was a game inside. Perhaps the game slid out from the tray, maybe you should grab your PS2 and shake the shit out of it trying to dislodge it....

I would just take the top off, your not endangering it by doing so.

I don\'t think so. But I\'m not sure, but I think you destroy the warranty if you open it. I would think all you\'d have to do is unscrew the top off...

look personally i dont recommend opening up the ps2 as it can be very tricky i dont recommend it even morso if it was a brand new one or if the warranty hasnt expired, it would be better off if u send it to sony and survive without yer ps2 for a few weeks rather than screw it up.

i dont think the CD is lodged inside anywhere, because i turn it on and it plays fine, so it must still be in the tray correctly
