PS2 V5 booting problems

[ethanhunt22]

PS2 V5, Neo 2.2, AR2 2.02 - this is the system I have, and I have tried many many ways of booting backups. (thanks to people who have suggested methods) No booting methods have worked as yet. I have been told that the EA method does not work on the V5 model, and that booting is all about timing. I have tried closing the tray and pressing X when it is half shut, fully shut, partly shut. But none work. After listening to my PS2, it reads the backup then stops and after about 5 seconds you hear a 'clunk'. But with an original you can hear the disc constantly spinning. Anyone know an exact method of booting? Or is it just trial and error? Please help thanks. Also i can hear a 'beeping noise' when i listen closely to my PS2. (about two beeps).
