I've been trying to troubleshoot all night but in vain. I just installed a Duo2 on a V4 no gap. Problem is PS2 does not play DVD games (orig's, backups, imports). It plays the CD based games fine (PS2, PS1, etc.)

However, when I disable the chip by pressing the reset until splash screen, DVD games work fine. How can I make my DVD's work. Any help is appreciated.

Could this be a sign of a weak laser? Any other insights.

You must have your DVD controller points mixed up. Since the ps1 game are booting correctly that means that your bios connections are fine. So the problem is in your DVD controller points. Those points are, A, B, and I. Check from point to chip and make sure they are connected to the right places.

I had the same problem too on my 2 weeks old PS2. I brought it to my installer to have him check it out. When he opened it up, the laser ribbon was not fully plugged and the laser was bad.
Can this be legit??
