Re: Disk Read Error

You could go to TechTv.com and look at their instructions for cleaning the lens. This may work, however, I have a much easier solution---call Sony. One of my close friends started receiving the dreaded disc read error (DRE). After reading about this, I advised him to call Sony directly (I heard they would fix the problem free). He called them Tuesday (12/2/03), noted the DRE problem and that he had owned the system for about 2 years. After the tech ran some troubleshooting (which didn't solve the problem)-he told my friend to simply ship the PS2 back to Sony (he gave them a confirm#, address, etc) and they would fix the problem free of charge. He's even getting a 90 day warranty on the fix. His only expense is the inexpensive shipping charge. Evidently Sony was involved in some type of suit a little while ago & they now offer to fix this problem the first time around. Just go to their site and get their toll-free # & call them. Trust me, this works. You certainly have nothing to lose at this point.

Re: Disk Read Error

My pleasure. When I first heard about it I was like, "yeah right". I didn't believe it until my friend called this week. He's shipped it already and they promised to have it back to him in 2-3 weeks.
