PS2 question...?

Question

Iv just bought four games and none of them will load.
The console comes up with the Browser/system config screen but when I press browser it only shows the memory card not the disc and resettin dosn't help. The other games seem to load fine any ideas??

They are second hand games but they look in really good condition and you gotta admit its pretty unlucky for tit to happen on 4 games?

Answer 1

mmmmmm

this could be caused by several things

1. when was the last time you cleaned the lens

2. have you put the game in the right way round ( ie picture facing upwards )

3. these games could be bad copies, therefore not playable

4. these games could be nstc region, not pal region.

5. have you tried putting in any of your old games, and seeing whats happens, as these is a good control test to elimate anything else.

hope this helps wg

Answer 2

Don't be fooled by how the disc looks there is more than likely some hidden scratches that have been covered over with cleaner i'd take them back. If you get second hand games get them from somewhere you can trust

Answer 3

Hmmm, that only happens to me when I use an old or used game that's got a lot of damage to the disc. If they're new, I'd take them back to wherever you bought them and explain the problem. If it's a gaming store, they might have seen that problem before and give you some advice.

Answer 4

try buying a lense cleaner for like £2 it might help or the games might be on a different format to PAL

Answer 5

you will have to check and see if the discs are of the same region as your computer (pal) etc

Answer 6

It could be some scratches stop it from loading I had it happen to me before. try scratch remover.

Answer 7

You need to clean the disks (or the lens).

Answer 8

Your laser may be dirty or on its way out
