i dont think that should be a very common problem. I would call sony customer service or google it and void ur waranty by trying to fix it urself.

Stop playing Star Wars and letting the wookies get out.

The only thing I can think of is that a part need some lube or a little light grease as it sounds like a moving part might be a little bit dry.

Drive is probably going bad. It seems to be common on the ps2. Have seen many go bad after about a years use.

I can't believe nobody has said this yet

"Let the Wookiee win."

Yay!

I heard that giving it a taste of it's own medicine works...Here's what you do: Turn on the PS2 and start screaming in wookiese at it.

They should have made the drives hot-swappable. $50.00/swap and good to go. Can't believe they looked over this.
