PS2 Fault

Ok guys need some help. Got a silver ps2 50003 model. Got an infinity chip fiited about 4 months ago. The Station has now become erractic in loading games, put a lens cleaner in sometimes helps this.

Big deal but tonight things seemed to turn worse, while playing a game the screen went blank and the red led on front started flashing... It wont reboot or switch off in this state, only removing the power lead sets it back up but after 5 mins or so after reloading game it reverts back to this state.

Any ideas please...


Thanks

Maybe it's an overheating problem - but I can't quite remember exactly...

ok

is the fan working at the back if it is then get a small pant brush and clean out the front grill on your ps2 then hover the grill and the fan at the back then try it, some times is the ps2 cant get a air flow though it if the grill is blocked and this will hove heat it
hope this helps

Ok thanks dudes I'll give it a whirl...

Also updated the infinity to 1.35

Sometimes find I need to reset the machine a few times before chip kicks in, anyone had that sort of problem.... ?

Once it does load then there is no problem after that...

Yes I have seen that a few times. Why it does that I dont know.

You may want to try this boot procedure as well.

From standby (red reset light) tap eject once, the PS2 will turn on, the tray will open, then put in your disc, tap reset once. The tray will close and the PS2 will reboot, and boot your disc right up.
