Hi there,
I wonder if anyone can help. I am having a problem with my PS2 at the moment.
When I turn the PS2 on, it doesn't seem to boot (to the main Sony screen with 'Browser' on it). It will boot about 1 in 30 trys of resetting it and if it does then boot, if I insert a CD or game, it won't load it!
I'm not sure what to do. I managed to load a CD lens cleaner thing a couple of days ago but that didnt seem to help, in fact, its probably got worse since then.
Any help anyone can give would be gratefull recieved! Thanks!

If u phone Sony, they will tell you to clean it with a low powerd hoover, and then there next sentance is, we can send you a new one for £70. sounds alot but you just give back the broken console and you keep your Memory cards, controllers etc and you can't get a PS2 new for £70 in the shops. on the point of PS2 breaking within a couple of years, I know people where there PS2's have packed up in the first year, and I wouldn't advise because I am sure shops check serials but I know someone who has more than once brought a PS2, and taken back there old broken one and got away woth it.
try turning the ps2 upside down it will load every time easy when you know how
You 'boot' anthing electrical. It's just another term for 'turning on' or 'powering up'.
My PS2 never died - all three of them. In fact, the only console to die on me was a SNES - 5 minutes after I bought it (second hand).

i was told by a friend that after a few years the PS2 stops working for some reason.
It might be the laser wearing out,how long have you had it?
And you turn on a PS2 and boot a pc

When I booted up my PS2, it came up with disc read error after I had had it for about 3 yrs, after having used a variety of disc cleaners and repairs. I bought a new one from woolworths for £99 and it was amazing when it booted up FFX-2 perfectly.
Contact Sony Customer Support. If they can't help over the phone, they'll repair the unit(s) for you. Otherwise get an Xbox with Xbox Live.
Hi there again,
If i boot it and then put the memory card in once its booted, it just freezes!

Sounds to me like it's in need of some good blowing.
