You are going to have to clean your PS2. if you do hear a click or tick, you are going to have to send it it so that the lens gets adjusted. either way you need to get it cleaned or adjusted. It should be under $35 for either one.

Does it do anything after that? (like show a picture of a disk?) Also listen closely to the drive for any "Clicks" "Ticking" or scrapiting noises. This could indicate a problem with your console.

My PS2 is not loading Grand Turirsmo 4!

If your PS2 works fine with most of the games and won’t play a few..Then you should try this trick to play them too on your PS2:

Turn on your PS2 without inserting any disc.
Menu screen will appear like:
Press the (triangle) Button to enter Version Information Menu that looks like
Highlight the Play Station Driver as above and again press (triangle).
New screen will appear like
Highlight the Disc Speed as above and press X button,to enter Disc Speed Menu
And set it from Standard to "Fast".
After you set Disc Speed to Fast, Press and Hold Reset Button to turn off your console.
Then again Press and Hold Reset Button till the Blue Light turns on.
Remove the Reset Button and Press it again.

Be patient and wait till the game loads itself. If your lens is in good condition then it will play game in first go else try again till it PLAY your game. If still your Grand Turismo 4 DVD wont work then you must clean your PS2 lens.Watch following video to learn about cleaning lens:
Thank you and Good Luck!

My PS3 isn't reading discs!

If it isn't even trying to spin up, than it is probably a failed drive motor, or a driver issue. If it is connected to the net, try to install the latest drivers for the disc drive. If you aren't, or that doesn't fix it, you need to take it in.

Yes, the PS3 can play PS2 games.

Playstation 2 won't play DVDs

if it's a fat PS2 and
model SCPH 30001, SCPH 35001
(not including the models with an 'R' after the model #.

these models need the following to play DVDs:
- PS2 DVD remote with IR unit
- PS2 DVD disc player (sold with DVD remote w/ IR unit)
- PS2 memory card

you copied the DVD disc to the memory card. you used the memory card to play DVDs.

later models didn't need the memory card to play DVDs.

hope this helps :D

My slimline ps2 will play dvds but when I put in shadow of the colossus the system acts like it is loading by the loading circle on the lower right side of screen then the screen stays black and the game...

Take a Q-Tip and do light circular motions on the laser eye.
Often the case, you may just need to take a soft cloth and clean your video game disc.
It's one of the two.

Won't load or play disc or dvd

It's a well known fact PS2's had a cheap lazer fitted to them, that's why when it gets chiped to play copy games, not long after it starts playing up. The lazer may just need aligning, purchase a cd/dvd cleaning cd rom as these can check audio, lazer alignment and clean the lens.
