2x ps2's

[H|LLJD00]

Hey all,

I have 2x ps2's here. One has a messiah 2 chip in and starts up but the eject button does not work, nor does the drive spin. So non responsive...

The other one has a matrix infinity in it but I get a disk read error, I tried to clean it with a cotton bud (nothing on it). But to no luck.

Can you give me advice about each. Oh an LUFC_Fan get catch me on msn please. About using my old board to fix the first ps2 :) hehe

Thanks

Well, the first PS2 sounds like either the mainboard fuse has either blown around the BA chip, or the BA chip itself has gone - or maybe both.

The second sounds like either the laser has died, or chances are a quick calibration would fix it up. Try ShadowKnyghts website here, it has a very good laser calibration guide:

Either way, I can help you out on MSN. I'll have to catch you either this afternoon or tomorrow some time, as it's my 18th tonight and I'm getting ratted :D
