Hi all hope someone can help me here, I own a SLIM PS2 for few years now, and recently it started giving me scratches on my discs, the scratch are all circles. I couldnt get a good pictures of my own disc but i give a picture i found from the net for reference.

My scratches are not as bad as shown in the pictures but somewhat similar.
Anyone know the cause of this? ive cleaned out the ps2 for dust. but i notice that when i move the lens up and down, the gold strip connected to the lens tend to lift up higher than the lens. Is it safe to push and massage the that gold strip down? hopefully it will solve the problem.
Thanks all
because the disc spindel on the motor is out of the alognment already, quite common with pstwo.

I hope someone can assist me with the problem that I am currently facing...
LCD TV: Samsung LA27S71B
DVD Player: Philips DVP5986K/98
Receiver: Yamaha RX-V1600
HDMI Cable: QED Qunex HDMI-P (1.3)
Console: Sony Playstation 3
Currently, I am using the HDMI port,
DVD - OK (720p/1080i)
Receiver monitor out - no picture
PS3 (connected straight to LCD TV) - no picture and not even detected by PS3. Tried to press the power button for 5 second to reset the display at PS3 but still not working. Currently running on standard definition. However, when I send the PS3 back to the shop with a 40" Samsung LCD TV, PS3 is able to detect the port immediately and subsequently asks for HDMI configuration. Got the person to set to 720p and yet no picture.
Thank you so much!

have u tried the cable with other ps3 +tv??
