so you're using crap...

Ritek -R = Good
Ritek +R = Bad

(In all instances in fact, +R equals bad).

Try some Ritek G04 (-Rs) and you won't be disappointed

You might simply have a dirty laser that needs to be cleaned and or adjusted, but yeah DVD-R's are better and Ritek at that.

How do I adjust a laser? I don't know if I will mess with that if it will screw anything up, but I will buy one of those cleaning things. Oh, and I had my ps2 modded through your service and I would have to say you did a great job, it got here fast and all that. Peace.

Thumbs down laser problems

i had similar problem on my old ps2. the laser moves up and down the disc on a screw, there is a plastic piece that goes from the laser into the screw grooves thus when the screw turns the laser moves up and down using the grooves. i found that this plastic piece warps with the heat of continuous play and skips in the grooves making a clicking noise, causing the laser to stick and eventually stops working.
BAD DESIGN BY SONY SHOULD HAVE USED A METAL PIECE INSTEAD - OR MAYBE THIS IS WHAT THEY WANTED TO HAPPEN, SO EVERY FEW YEARS YOU HAVE TO REPLACE YOUR SYSTEM?
(BAD DESIGN OR EXELLENT MARKETING BY SONY)

Yeah, maybe that's what it is. Like sometimes it does it alot, other times I can play for a few hours and nothing happens, like last night when I played some NFL 2k5, and it did it right when I started the system, but I hit the top of the system a few times(not that hard)and suddenly it worked and it didn't do it again the whole time.
