PUT MUSTARD OIL ON THE DISC JEEZ

youu could try to take a card of some kind. put it about half way in the game spot. then blow in the gap between the card and the black rubber on the ps3. It may build up dust. also try restoring

But you are unable to play your discs because the Blu-Ray Lens that enables the PS3 to read Blu-Ray movies or games has gone bad.

There is nothing you can do about it. You need to take it to an authorized Sony Service Center and get the lens replaced.

can the new 2009 playstation3 be upgrade to play palystation2 games

coz i dont know what else i can do

when you switch the ps3 on if you hold down the power button for more than 4 seconds it runs the display setup. and sets the ps3 to run in the best possible option
