Recently my ps2 has been having some problems, during some games it locks up and when i try to play another game, it asks for a format disk, anyone got any ideas on how to fix this, thanks.

Wrong forum...

To Main Forum it goes...
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

You may need to clean or adjust the laser in your ps2.

check to see what color the bottom of the  game disks are that are giving you the error message.   Then do a search on how to adjust the laser for those disks.

My room mate had the problem with blue-bottom disks.  I looked up the tutorial for adjusting the laser and fixed it.  The tutorial had pictures to make it easy.

I got a new laser in mine when it started playing up. No problems at all now.
