Onimusha 2 backup was working perfecly yesterday..

My original works fine, and my backup was also, it just suddenly stopped working, it would take minutes to load after equipping a weapon and sometimes never even boots! The original has no scratches neither does th backup, do you think I need a cd cleaner? I have tried my other dvd originals and backups and they boot fine.

The laser could need cleaning, but it is likely just a bad burn.

Hmm, but I burned the game just like I always do, none of my originals have any scracthes so I doubt it was a bad burn, i'll go pick myself a cd lens cleaner, thanks for the help Bighap.

if it worked one day and then doesnt the next, I can see 3 possible problems,

1, Mod has been knocked and has come lose. maby a wire isn't connected anymore?

2, Your laser has died or is in a worse state than it once was...

3 the information on the disk has become corrupt , the least likly of the 3 but can happen when **** media is used,

Check your mod, recallibrate your laser..

only use verbatim, Apple & ritek media as they are the most reflective they are more friendly to your laser...

wot media r u using.

I had this problem a long time ago with cheap bad dvd-r media that would work perfectly one day and then seem to lose the write off it.

If u using cheap media then it has probably degraded beyond a reasonable reading threshold for the ps2 laser, where as yesterday it was just on the threshold.

Well TDK's are supposed to be quite good - strange happenings. In the future though, try and get some Apple, Verb or Ritek as they are quite simply the best.
