Ps2 laser working like crazy
I noticed that my ps2 struggles abit on some backups I have..
The worst one is The Urbz. Backed up on Ritek G04 disc. Tried it first and that disc just took forever to read and constatnly lockups in the game. Tried again and that one works better but still some lockups.. and the laser you can hear working like nuts from time to time. I noticed this on Leisure suit larry too.. Ok, no lockups in that game but that laser was working very hard on that game too.. I know, my system is getting old. You think that a good clean of the lens can help? or will I need to start checking up the value on pots? *damn* why does stuff like this alwas happen when there is no way to afford a new ps2...

Try and clean it, but if I was you i'd get a HDD in their and shove the games on their

Yeah, I was looking earlier today and saw that just the game The Urbz isn't compatible with hd loader. I planned to buy a network adapter and put a HDD in it.. but if it isn't compatible then it wont help for this game atleast.
99% of the backups I have works just fine.. some of the I hear the laser work pretty hard on but no skipping and stuff like that. Gonna try to clean it and see if that will help. Havn't opened it up for cleaning since I got it so it might be kinda messy the lens. I have used a cd/dvd cleaner disc once in awhile but that just wipes loose dust and so I think.. A V7 would be nice to have, I have a V5 R version.

Nothing wrong with a v5 r. If cleaning dont work you may want to adjust the pots or invest in a new laser.

Ok.. I will try to clean it by hand and blow all dust out from it. If that don't help I will try to adjust the pot. if that doesn't help then I guess I'öö have to live with it or try to save up for a new laser / console.
I'll keep you informed on success or failure

use a hover to get all the dust outa the grill, and a dvd lense cleaner works a treat.
