It shouldn't be too serious. It sounds like the disc may be damaged, if you got it second hand etc...
If it's new, I'd take it back, and try again. CD-R games aren't going to work without a chip, so that's gonna go to read screen. If it still doesn't work, the drive may need the slightest tweak. Different discs have different reflectivity rates, which will explain why Audio CD's work but your game doesn't...

the disc is brand new out the packet.
evidentally my sons m8 bought a game round a few months ago with the blue dye and it did the same.the ps2 isnt chipped so obviously i cant back it up on a silver backed disc and try it.or could i what message should i get. spoke to playstation they want £65 to send the ps2 back and send me a recon but i dont see why i should when it reads dvd games and audio then surely it must be a fault with the lue disk games and my ps2 wont read em. any other ideas greatly appreciated also how do i tweak the drive to see if i can get the game working? cheers for help guys

First thing is, you may want to just try a laser lens cleaner. Maybe you just got a little bit of junk on your laser lens. If that doesnt work then Im sure some of the people here can help you with adjusting your laser.
