My PS2 can´t read DVD-Games

[Ernieboy0021]

Since todays my ps2 can´t read DVD anymore. Theres no problem with cd based games, and ps one games.

I tried to adjust the lense based on Internet Documents ("How do I....") It´s a V4 machine an i tried the correct FAQ Files. But it still don´t works.

I tried many different positions of the lense but there´s always a knocking sound of the drive. 3 or 5 times knocking.

Could it be a lense problem if it takes only CD based games or not?

I tried every single position of the wheel at the back of the drive this didn´t work as well.

Now I haven´t got any ideas anymore and I hope you can give me some advice.

ya your laser is gone could try to clean it v4 have crap lasers so you are looking around the €50 mark to get a new one could try to adjust the laser power but this is only a temp fix

Yeah like sawdust said you might want to try adjusting the pots on the laser to increase its power, but only attempt this if you have an ohm meter.

Damn...

I tried to adjust the potis but i´ve got no chance to run DVD´s =( ..

So does anybody know a site, which is developing lasers to austria .. it might should be cheap ;)
