i was told that it was possible to recalibrate the laser on the slim ps2 but i dont see how, it said to be similar to how u do it on a original ps2 but i dont see how. i took some screenshots if anyone can help me a tell me was next to do, or if its even possible for the slim ps2.

This is as far as i got.

you have to take the laser out and on some part youll see two screws, beside it should say cd and dvd. you need to turn those screws to recalibrate the lens. however, i dont konw which way to turn or how much, also, i know it would take alot of time to get it just right

you will have to unscrew all four screws to get to the laser anyways, so just unscrew the whole thing, ie: the four screws that holds the disc motor and the lens. there you should be able to find the two screws on the lense that recalibrates the lens. you can just tweak that.
