Long time ago my playstation stopped reading cd\'s too.
so I took it to a sony reparation shop.
after complaining like a bastard on a poor girl, she called a japanese guy who came and cleaned up the lens with a special liquid...
he actually told me how to make that liquid out of alcohol and something else I dont remember...

that didnt solve the problem since the lens problem the first psx\'s had was about calibration.

I hope I\'m not gonna have the same trouble with the ps2.

You\'d be surprised how much dust there is in it.

How exactly did you do it?

any precautions you took?

You cleaned it, and it works?

Or you took it to a repair store, and it works?

I cleaned it, and it works.

I would never touch the insides of my PS2, I\'ll leave that stuff for the pros.

I vacuumed the fan and front vents and cleaned it with a CD cleaner, still it wants to go to the browser then the game kicks in.. ugh...
