Hey guys, I need help finding a place around the LA area to fix my PS2. I opened it a few days ago to blow the dust and clean the lense and when i put it back together and played something happened.

When i play let say 2k6, it would load and everything but when it gets to the loading the game itself it would make a this really loud noise like a buzzing sound. The audio would stall, the commentator would keep repeating "That was a great dunk" over and over again. It would go on and stop. Sometimes if i tilt the PS2 it would be fine. Anyone know what my problem is or know a place i could get my ps2 fix? Thanks.

I just signed up for gamefly, sigh.....

Dont know what is wrong with the lense. You can try cleaning it again. Also I believe gamestop does repairs my sister got her gamecube repaired there like 2 weeks ago because when she powered it on the disc wouldnt spin. So check gamespot.com for the nearest store call and ask if they would repair I guess.

Might need to just adjust the laser. I've gone over it a couple of times with people and adjusted mine several times. I could do it in my sleep.

Here's a link to a great tutorial.

I just called my local gamestop and they said they don't repair system but they buy broken system for like 30 bucks.

edit: i'll try that tutorial, but i don't know if it'll work.

...and people wonder why/how Sony sold so many Playstations (both 1&2). That really sucks though. I'm sure there's someone out there that can help ya.
