[QUOTE="2cvbloke, post: 383906, member: 199791"] Don't worry, it's too damned difficult to get into the PS2 (tried to get in 2 years ago to see what makes it tick!!!), so I wouldn't be opening it up to fiddle with the laser... :D As for the cotton bud, I'm very gentle and spin the tip round whilst carefully moving it round the lens, I did the same to my old stereo (before I dropped it down the stairs!!!) which had a caked up lens, and 10 minutes of careful cleaning and it was fully functional again... :D But alas, the lens is clear as a whistle but it just keeps messing about when I switch it on... :( Once it's going it's fine, it's just the initial starting up that it acts up...
