Problem Loading PS2 DVD

[spedmetal]

I use to think the same thing about it being able to play DVD-R movies. One would think that if it can play DVD-R movies that to play a DVD-R game would be no problem. This just isn't the case. The DVD-R game goes through a bunch of copy protection checks and if the laser isn't reading well it will through off the timing of the PS2 and not read correctly. A good way to determine if your laser is on the frits is to put in an original PS2 silver and if when booting up the disc it goes to the browser screen before if finally boots then you could have a laser issue.
