I am guessing most of u have a ps2 well i do and i need a little help!!!!!!!!!

My ps2 plays my games well but when it comes to my Dvds about half way through the film it comes up with unable to read disc...... does anyone else have this problem and if so how do i fix it?

plz help me out cuz i dont wanna spend another 200 qiud on one.
I have had this problem for about 7 months and i have kept it in good condition.

It's probably the PS2. See if you can take it back. I got a faulty PS2 also, but luckily I had a 1 year warranty with EB, so I got to exchange it for another one. At my local EB, they get about 40% of their PS2's back. Sony rushed 'em out so that Sega wouldn't get a foothold on the market, so that's the reason so many of 'em are buggy.

Thanks, but i cannot take mine back well i dont think so as i have had it for well overa year now

If you look in the PS2's owner guide it says the some DVDs are not workable with the PS2. If the DVD is then the lens on the PS2 might need to be cleaned, or the disc is damaged.


EDIT: You can buy cleaner discs at stores for usually $4-10. And if the disc is dirty some CD stores have polishers you can use.

oh i see what you mean i have a dvd cleaner but the dvds like pearl habour and thatwork perfectlly until about the half way point when they come upwith a message saying unableto read disc? can someone explain this?

Then it's probably trhe PS2's laser lens. Get a cleaner CD and put it in.

Before you get all worried about it I would try using the DVD's with someone else's PS2. That might give you a better idea what the problem is.

your ps2 might be getting too hot as well. if you have it sitting flat, then try putting it on something so that air can flow beneath it, such as on a milk crate (by the way, it's a $2000 fine to steal a milk crate, crazy, eh?) anyways, i know that a ps2 can get too hot if it's on a carpet, or if it's just in a kind of enclosed area, or anything else that could trap heat.

i know this yeah but i wanna know why it does this can anyone give other help
