We gotto have a little more info than you posted.
What chip do you have??
What version PS2?? Did it play backups before??
What media are you using??

sorry my bad.

gotta matrix infintity and a v3(not sure though) ps2.

i´m using ritek media. but it´s not the media considering that even originals do not work anymore, or do i think it is?? ít really doesn´t read anything. and the backups worked fine before. i got the chip installed a 1 month ago or something..
when i insert anything, it speeds up and then a wierd sound comes, sounds like stopping or something like that, sounds really weird..i really don´t know what it is.
what´s wrong with my ps2?? can you help plzz?

Without having it in hand its hard to say Kolle. If it just all of a sudden done this then i would guess maybe a wire came loose. If its something that progressed over a period of time it may be a laser issue. Short of opening it up and having a look inside its really hard to say.
Maybe Spedmetal or someone else will see this and suggest something.

Sounds like a laser issue to me...

Yea from the description I sorta get a laser vibe myself.. The disc speeding up and the clicking noises seem to me like the laser is struggling to read something.. And if originals aren't working anymore it would probably lessen the chance of it being a modchip issue.. V3.. Pretty old.. Maybe the poor guy just gave out.
