A while back I had a fault with my PS2 the problem was it didn't read discs. I gave Sony a ring and they sorted out that I got a replacement which I thought was very good service..

Now a few months down the line and my PS2 is playing up, it still works but the memory card and disc screen appear I click the disc and it loads goes blank and goes back to the screen again.. I don't know if this problem could be sorted in anyway before it got worse? Any advice would be appreciated.

Exactly what happens to me when the PS2 is in a vertical position.

If yours is, put it horizontally, and that should fix it. If your PS2 is horizontal, then you look to have a problem.

Begs the question of why Sony would encourage people to put it in that position in the first place, when it clearly causes the machine to function poorly.
