My playstation 2 wont play playstation 2 games silver or blue/purple. it shows the bit with sony and the things moving then when the word playstation usually appears it makes the sound but it doesn't show the word playstation and then nothing happens. it will however play playstation 1 games
This can occur if the Playstation has been knocked or dropped. On the slim version if you remove the screws underneath and remove the top cover you may find the the small drive shaft has been dislodged from the motor. Push it back into place refit cover and screws. This fixed my PS2 with this fault.
There are many videos on how to clean and adjust the laser if you checkout www.youtube.com. Search on "playstation 2" (or 3 depending on your model)
At least you get to actually see someone fix the problem which is far easier than following written instructions.
Don't forget if your cleaning your own laser... that eye you see is just a piece of glass... underneath is a mirror and the laser. So remember to blow under the eye with compressed air... but be careful the laser sits on copper wires.
The playstation will turn on but it wont load any games it goes straight to the Browser and setup configuration. is it the lense or what?
Buy a dvd lens cleaner, Walmart, or Walgreens has them, I bought the Scotch brand, will work on PS2!
Sounds like your laser is on its way out or requires cleaning/servicing or calibration or all three, Really need an expert to check this out for you, Very common problem unfortunately.

i have a dynasty warriors 5 game and it works perfectly but i also have dynasty warriors 5 xtreme legends and that works until it gets to the loading part, is there something wrong with the disc ir is it my PS????, plz can anyone help me
My playstation 2 is the slim black type.. it sits horizontal not vertical. It just played a sims game last night now today it is not working. Each time I turn it on it only goes to the configure and browse default and it does not spin the disk or even notice there is a game in there! I have no idea what to do.
I unplugged it for hours then replugged.
I checked all the wiring.
I tried to see if the cd stopper was stuck
I tried to play the disk open, and closed, and upsidedown
I tried to get it to work sideways, which others said worked.
Nothing has worked.
I was just about to buy sims 2 castaway too!
I don't play often either, so over use is no way the prob.
I can't afford another one.
What now? I don't get it.
I just played games the other day, now when I put a game in it goes to the browser/configure screen, what shoud I do to fix this problem?
