playstation 2 help
 

I am having problems running games on my PS2 lately. It seems that the system is not reading my disks. I think the problem is that the lens is dirty. I looked on sony's website and they suggest buying the cd wipes and cleaning the disks. The problem I have is that the game I was trying to play was brand new. I have tried running a dvd disk cleaner and it sometimes works. Lately it hasn't been working and I have to sit there and keep resetting the system until it catches. I think last night I must have reset the game at least thirty times before it caught. Does anyone have any suggestions.

here:

go to any movie/music/game shop and tell them you need a cleaning kit for the lens INSIDE the ps2, not the games.

i got a cd that's had little brush. put it in.. play. stop. all is good.

i'm on my second ps2 now and had some amazingly fucked up issues so i've done about anything imaginable with my old one.

tell me if it doesn't work!

oh yeah. these kits are cheap. i wouldn't pay over $15 or so. i think mine was $7

You might try taking it to a store that sells used games, sometime they will clean the system for free. (At least here in town...)
