Ahh, the infamous disk read error. Why is the PS2 ruined by being so defective? 
. If any PS2 owner is honest, they are all going to break down on you sooner or later, most last around 18 months. I started getting disk read error a few months back, it comes up when i try to play some DVDs, and blue bottomed PS2 titles. It doesn't play MSG Substance either, which is bloody annoying 
.
Anyway, you've got two choices, you can either sent it back to sony along with £60 and they'll send you a refurbished one (if it's inside the warranty period). Or, you can do what i did, take it apart . Theres a ton of websites which tell you how to 'tune up' your machine, i tried it, and some games run a little better, but i still can't get those annoying blue bottomed games to work, or Metal Gear :'( .
Oh well, hey ho lol.
