Read the description! It gives a bit more insight into why the PS2 may not be reading your disc(s)! *Here are the steps in this video (with timestamps):* 00:00 Step 1: Turn on your PS2 console without a disc inside. 00:26 Step 2: Press the Triangle button on 'System Configuration' for the Version settings. Go up to 'Console' and select 'Options'. Turn Diagnosis On. 00:35 Step 3: Exit out of settings. Put the disc in. 00:49 Step 4: Now wait until you get the 'Disc Read Error'. This can take a while, so be patient. It took around 5 minutes for me. 01:01 Step 5: With the disc still in the console, press the 'Reset' button on the PS2. Sometimes it will work first time and load straight into the game from here. If not, it will take you to home screen, so continue to next steps... The fix doesn't always work the first time. So to try again... 01:31 Step 6: Turn Diagnosis back on. (It automatically turns itself off every time you reset the PS2). This time don't reset, just wait for a little while... Using this method I've been able to get "unreadable" discs to work most of the time! 02:10 Once the console has successfully read the disc, load up the game!
Interesting video I look forward to field testing this out Saturday afternoon on my day off. I recently dubbed up an old PS2. I have that doesn’t read this fat version. Hopefully this works for me.
This doesn't work for me I've kept waiting and waiting and it's still not working cuz I'm using a blue disc nothing is wrong with it no scratches and no scuffs
