Well hopefully its just the laser. Have you tried the laser from the unit you tested your laser in?

i was going to try putting the other laser into the chipped ps2...but surely the risk of that one going tits up is very high?..i don't want to ruin 2 lasers....any ideas...anyone

Maybe you just had a bad laser. Ive seen a case of that myself when a brand new unmodded ps2's laser just quit 2 days after being purchased.

I dont see anything bad happening to your friends laser in your ps2. The only modchips that had anything to do with lasers were Neo chips.
