my slimeline pstwo has been working great (apart from sometimes freezing during games) up until three days ago, its about 10 months old. now it just shows the screen that has the picture of the memorycards on it and the disk, however every time i click on the disk to load the game it trys then reloads the same thing. the playstation is not modded in any way. It still plays audio cds but wont play games at all?? any help

maybe your laser burned out. The slims had issues with lasers burning out and dying.

call up sony, I think the slims have a 1 year warranty on it so they'll probably fix it for free (if it's a 1 year warranty that is).

I would see if you're still under warrenty if not you can try the laser fix. if that doesn't work then your laser is probably gone...

laser fixes are for slimline PS2's
Mostly for people who have a chip installed.
I have a Summone laser fix in my V12 to prevent spikes
in current from burning the laser out.
