When I open my PS2's disk tray it comes out perfectly,but then it starts to grind and I have to push it back in.

I have a fat ps2, I've had it for about 4 years now i think. The proplem with it is that it will only play cds with blue backs, When i put in a cd that has a white back it says error or something along those lines. Is this something to do with the laser? If so what can i do about it?

Thats kinda weird because usually the PS2 has rouble reading blue bottomed disks. It should read the white bottomed disks just fine. Make sure that their are no lethal scratches on the disk. Just clean the laser. It should tell you in this link.

If you see in the pics that he takes the laser and CD tray out don't do that. Just clean the laser while it is inside the case. And your PS2 will probably not look the same anyways.

if its a "fat" PS2 its most likely a much older model, look on tha back of your PS2s and check th model my "fat" one is SCPH-500002 and my slimline is 700002 games work perfectly on both and ive had the big one for around 6-7 years now! but apparently the older ones have some problems playing the newer faster games and ive heard the upside-down trick when i had my PS1 and it worked so many times but ive never had to use it on my PS2s, the blue bottomed discs are CD and apparently are lighter than the "white" DVDs so they tend to move around a bit....
