What chip do you have in your ps2?

I think it is a NEO. Its been awhile since I had it put in.

Ok, Neo's will ruin your laser. Although later ones added a capacitor to stop this, it still wound up overflowing and sending too much power to your laser. Your laser is probably shot now.

Do you know of anyone that I can send my PS2 to for laser repair? Also do I need to replace the chip? I don't want to...because I am getting a new PS2 after the holidays! Thanks,
BK

Check the Installers Sticky for reliable installers, thats in the PS2 section. Yes its the chips fault so even if you put in a new laser the NEO will burn it out a lot sooner than if you used a newer chip. But if your gonna get a new ps2 why not just hold off.

Just check that the laser doesnt just need a clean , i was told that mine needed a new laser and when i took the hoover to it and cleaned out the dust it worked fine ,lol
