I Hate my PS2

I have been having a lot of trouble reading backup media (Taiyo Yuden etc), well I ordered HD loader and it finally came. I installed the hard drive and then tried to boot from the disk, it didnt work. I then proceeded to try booting my original Katamari disk and that didn't work. I retried about 5 times and it finally booted up. Do you think my laser needs to be cleaned? Or do I just need a new PS2?

I have the no solder modchip installed, so there are no soldering issues.

I personally would try cleaning the laser then adjust the laser if that doesn't work. What version is it anyways?

GAH, I ran over and got a laser cleaning kit, but the PS2 won't even let me run that. It is a SCPH-3001 so V4.

V4 PS2's are notorious for laser issues! You may need to have the laser cleaned and or adjusted.
