GAH!!! Makes me want to rip my hair out when I see this. Some may know that this sometimes happens when your Ps2 refuses to play blue disk, and even psx. I remember it was working fine I was playing Tekken tag ( a blue disk game) now it wont work, I was going to finsh this Final Fantasy IIV game some one let me see. Then I see the DRE come up, plus ive been hearing this nasty Grinding noise that makes me go like. :shocked: .

These is really making me mad, ive serched around the Internet. I heard u can send it back to sony and they will repair it for free but my warrent went out I think. So I dont feel like paying $75.00 just to fix this problem. Ive also seen the do it ur self by taking ur ps2 apart and cleaning it and cleaning the Laser. But it says there is a 95% chance it shall work.

Even though I do take apart computers apart clean them and fix them then put them back together. This little black box has a lot more things in it then some PC. So I do see why they charge $200.00, I really dont feel like going threw all those long steps just to get to the laser which is VERY WELL covered.

Last option was I heard of this "Laser lens cleaner" A simple cd that looks like a PS2 disk but has tiny brushes on it so it could clean the laser. Which is very cheap price raging from $6 to $14, that can be bought in stores.

Well I need help im note sure what to do, but have any of yall been threw this and fixed ur Ps2?? ???
