It makes this ticking noise then and then waits and asks me for a PS2 CD. I tried several burners, software (NERO, CLONECD, ALCOHOL 120%) and several CD types, but I am getting the same result. Maybe I'm getting forgetful in my old age and there's something I'm missing? Can you please help me out? Note again: The PS2 reads old CD's I backed up 2 years ago.

Sounds like the laser is struggling to read the cds'. Have you changed the brand of cd's you are using for backups?
