my PS2 is clicking


Recommended Posts

well a friend of mine used an unauthorized mem card (it had to load a crappy program from a disk before being able to use it) and then it had trouble playing some ps1 games. mainly black/blue discs. well this morning it wouldnt play anything, black/blue/white/retail audio cd and says disc read error. i know there has been major probs wiht this but does any1 have advice how to fix it, other than shipping it to sony. thanks for any help. :(

no to dvds. it was an interact memory card 8mb and was unlicensed and used about 4-6 months ago. this has been like a progressive disease. first trouble reading ps1 games. and the blue disc wouldnt read, and now the rest wont read. virgin ps2.

1.Buy a new PS2 at wallmart

2.carefully open the box so it dont look like it was opened, carefully peel off the serial number sticker on the back and put it on your old one

3.Place old PS2 wtih new sticker in box

4.return it cause you got it for your birthday and dont have money for games

5.laugh at poor SOB who buys the worn out PS2

6. never buy another sony product again cause they make pices of crap, even though PS2 is the best system as far as games.

As I said there was something you weren't telling us.

In your original post you make it seem as if you used this memory card and your console immediately started having problems reading some disks, then the next day it wouldn't read any disks.

You then say it's been a progressive problem which indicates to us that this has nothing to do with the memory card and that you have the typical problems that the PS2 has which is problems reading disks.

As far as I know there is no easy fix, it's not under warranty unless you bought an extended warranty so you can send it back for repair or call your local GameStop or EBGames and see what they can do for you.

Also you can edit your posts, there is no need to post three times in a row.

That would be fraud and highly illegal.

Sounds like it's broken or something. Have you called Sony's tech support, or is there a reason not? I've called Microsoft's before for xbox problems, and I wouldn't imagine sony would be worse in that respect.

thanks for the help. yes i didnt post everything in my first post, my brain got scattered since i was lookin to wind down with my game and couldn't. called sony and they waived the $98 fee of something. all i have to do is send it to them via U.P.S or FedEx.

P.S. any1 know what ups charges per pound. i believe the ps2 weighs about 6lbs. there was no reason not to i just came to neowinians first.

I'd go with UPS, it should cost about 12.00 with 200.00 insurance via Ground.

sucks to your 'illegal' and 'fraud'. Without social deviants like us, you would be the social deviant. Society will always push its people to a magic ratio or dogooders and and deviants, no matter how thoes lines will be drawn.
