Well if you're still under warranty it's free to mae sony repair it. They have a system of giving your broken one and you get another repaired one back. So you get someone else's but if it's not a problem.

My brother had a problem with it once and he got a good one back.

Contact Sony tech support, see if their little computer screens can help you. If it's still under waranty take to a sony certified repair place and see what they can do with it. p.s. you could also take the date of the occurance into concideration. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Superstitious, are we?

Ross, PS2 isn't exactly the sturdiest game system around. It breaks easily, scratches CDs easily, and scratches DVDs easily.

Incase you don't know, they'll probably keep you on hold for a looooong time. They probably sent you an automated e-mail that only had one change (your name)

[Firestormalpha]

Yup, standard procedure.

They have you describe the problem and if your description hits some keywords in their database they will give you and auto-response that may or may not solve the issue. Or a response that tells you to contact them.

[RoSs_bg2_rox]
