yea only within 90 days or their charge ya

How could you have gotten it fixed for free if its a V4, ... I haven't seen v4s in stores in ages, so I doubt it still had the warranty.

No not on v4 call and see i am 100% that thay will fix it if it is not open. If the lazer is bad and not reading cds or dvds thay will fix it. I had my v4 ps2 for about 2 1/2 years and sony said send it and i got it back in 2 weeks and ps2 works ok.

Fixed for FREE? ... or fixed for CASH.

Theres a difference.

Thats the thing

Its not broken, and so far its never given me a DRE error, so I cant really give it to sony to fix it. But I am worried that it might someday since it takes 10-20 seconds for most games to boot. And if it happens AFTER the ps2 has been modded then I cant send it back to sony for repairs.

Either wait im waiting until the HDD is out to make sure there wont be incompabilities.

I got it fix for free:)

Like I said, its not broken yet

How could you after the 90 days passed?! :confused:


Why, do you want me to break it ... I think I can I think I can.

i bought a broken v1 off ebay back when v5-6 was in stores it was 1/2 borken so i got it cheap it played awhile but got worse and worse about reading so i called sony told them i bought it off ebay as working and it was doing rsod on ever thing they told me to send it back and they fix it for free :) they said usely would cost $90 but they waved that fee so i sent it and they put a new laser and clean it up and sent it back and it worked like new but it took like a month for me to get it back cause they had my address screwed up so it came to my town and went back to MI then back to me again and in the mean time i bought another v6 so i sold the v1 on ebay for $170 and bought me my first no solder R mod which worked great with my gs2 till i got the money to get a apple solder in and the funney thing is i opened that v1 trashed that warrenty sticker and they still fixed it i had taken that ps2 all apart lol i guess cause i told them it came from ebay the sticker was alrdy like that but yeah they fix them for free $ony was good about doing that.

Well its cause yours was "1/2 borken" as you say.

You mean you guys dont know?

Becuase of the INSANELY large amount of PS2s that eventually keep giving the dreaded Disk Read Error message, any PS2 that gives a DRE or has problems reading disks, sony will fix for free.

What if I ran mine over with a pickup, but still have the sticker attached, ... I'm getting reading problems with it now. :rolleyes:

I think they would tell if you ran it over then if it just stopped working on it's own

You know what I mean

Ok, new question, will I be able to use a HDD in my ps2 if this Duo Chip you recommended is isntalled?
