My playstation is about 3 years old, and I haven't had any problems with it. It is a thin ps2 w/ a SCPH-75001 power supply. I was playing a baseball game one time, and it just shut down on me, and when I went to turn it back on, the green light would come on for a second then turn to red again. I don't know if I need to get a new power supply or what it could be. If you could email me and let me know, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you for your time.

Hi Ron,
To the best of my Troubleshooting knowledge on the Slim, this sounds like a Temperature problem. Do not lay the Slim on the carpet when playing and try not to keep it in sunlight. It will last you much longer to shut it off when not using it. Let it cool off and try it again.
If dust is the culprit, you will need to disassemble the Slim and clean it out, mainly the fan. The Slims fan is very succeptable to dust accumulation.

Picking a replacement power supply is tricky if you don't know the process, and the exact specs of the supply you are trying to replace. You would be much better off just buying one listed for your model PS2, like this one:

Brand new power supply for $16.95 and usually ships the next day. Something like this you would have no chance of damaging your unit.
make shaw its not a ps3 game, not trying to be patronizing but ive had 3 people do that brought ps3 games and try to put them in ps2, its true sony are rip off merchants, my advise is not to get a wii ether go for a xbox 360, he will love you for ever. the download content alone you can get for rock band1/2 and guitar hero world tour is worth it
Believe me or not, i have the exact same PS2 model no PS2. Most models had Lens problems of 75001, si thats the reason, I chnaged my PS2's lens for 25$ and now all's fine, so change yours too mate!
your lense is more than likely defragmented jacob and you should never take any system apart okay so what you wanna do is if your warrenty is still in effect dont tell sony you took it apart just send it in for a refurbisment if it isnt you need to look around online for a ps2 slim lense okay
There were two versions of the multi-tap made; one for the original fat
PS2 and a smaller version made for the slim. The two versions are
incompatible with the other PS2. If you have the original multi-tap
connected to the slim, it should throw out the 'controller
disconnected' message when you boot up. The slim version of the
multi-tap should have a sticker on the bottom saying 'only works with
models SCPH-70000, SCPH-75001, SCPH-75002'.
Other than the sports games, I don't recall any titles that allow more than two players anyway.
