I need help fixing my ps1

[autozoneize]

@Toasterman247 this kid is not poor . he loves his psx.. he had it fo 7 years

[Zachandhisdicky47101]

Just buy another one

[Sonic5741]

wierd first you may want to check your disc make sure that there isn't any scratches. if clean check your laser If it is a blue or a green color then try cleaning it with a damp tip of a cloth. not too wet otherwise you will kill it all together. if this doesn't help then you will need a new laser. Check your model no. (should be on the bottom of the ps1) then find one on ebay or somewhere. they should be around 4 or 5 bucks and then change it over. the last thing is to get a new ps1.

[TheKenday21]

KKKKKKKKKKK Crash bandicoot 2 music!!

[cameron20101000]

Find something to fix this or get another PSone or start getting a PSX/PS1.

[byaskowe]

buy a ps2 and play the origional playstation games on that

[Toasterman247]

someone is poor as fuck.

[colgatepony234]

Try playing something else. If you get a blank screen with a red 'no' symbol that says "Software terminated, comsole may be modified. Call XXX-XXX-XXXX", it means that your ps1 is modded.

[14KISS1973]

your ps1 is fryed or the game is toast

[BLASR24]

Try using a different disc maybe your disc is too scratched

[cameron20101000]

Crash Bandicoot 2

I got that game.

[Ron321321is]

you can also do what i did if you got ps3 just use the ps3 its can reads ps1 discs (but only if you got ps3 )

[suuperdwarf]

it's internal video card has gone bad, there isn't a way to fix it

[nathanmccall1]

it is the disk that is scrached

[InfectedGuppy606]

i love my ps1 :D

[sideswipe3511]

[kubus78963]

płyta porysowana i jusz

[lucas66568]

[lucas66568]

to me it does the same thing.i keep, keep, keep trying to play rescue shot on ps1but it doesn't work.sorry,i can't help you because i'm 12

[TheDog7118]

it the video cord use the three way cord one whit yellow red white not the one whit five way cord green red blue red white useing this cord will do this you can't use hd video cord

[cutemimi25]

I think the PS1 could just use some cleaning inside the system (not the lens).

[Haunted360]

OK you have the eye of the laser, and the actual laser diode. You can use compressed air to clean the laser diode (need to open the PSone) and you can use windex (window cleaner) with a q-tip to clean the eye (the blue circle when the console lid is open). If this does not work, your drive deck is gone. Sony used plastic to make these decks, so the gearing is most likely gone.

[leon101ist]

that wat happends on mine ps1

[zayedaltamimi]

i have a psx and whenever i play any game it keeps restarting by itself ... can anyone help solve this out PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAASEEEEEE? thnx

[Haunted360]

@zayedaltamimi keeps restarting by itself? Sounds like the reset button microswitch is arcing on itself. This is too dangerous for someone like you to fix, as it lies right on the main power supply inside the console.

[TheDog7118]

@zayedaltamimi the power cord is bad

[SOF006]

Moral of the story, buy a PS2 or PS3.

[YoungRyeVEVO]

7 or 8 years? You sound 7 or 8 years! ..jk

[beastmasternumber1]

[Sunset89305]

Mine just goes up to the Sony part and says I don't have a cd someone plz help me

[101jonas4ever]

same problem

[BobStinkfulla]

Tilt the console sideways. Always worked for mine back in the old days.

[DetonatorMax]

try cleaning the laser cannon or adjust the potentiometer

[locoamazing12]

@DetonatorMax that may be a solution but u think thats the problen 7 yeras ago i have the same problem and all i did was to buy a lens and then the problem goes away

[beastmasternumber1]

@locoamazing12 what lens and where did you get it the same thing that happened to him happened to me today please reply and help me

[skuxman360]

just buy xbox 360 cuz it owns all gaystation consoles xbox 360FTW

[matt111able23]

Dude, i think your problem is that the video cord (i think it's the yellow one) is unplugged. Mine did the same thing and when i checked the hookups, i just realized that my video cord plug was not plugged in. That would explain the sound, but none of the game showing.

[blacknum3]

mmmmmm io yours ps1 buy 1 reter buy 2 ps1



[Spikestuff95]

[killa0833]

[iluvallmychao0071]

@pahanssen

Yes, Crash Bandicoot 2, Cortex Strikes Back. (LOVE THAT GAME)

[TehPwner9001]

Says the little kid.

[Karabin1000]

buy ps2

[FazedxGaming]

try to start it up backwards like put the ps1 flat backwards and turn it on or try side ways or wrap it up in taowels it works that happened to mine years ago.

if you wrap it around in toweels and turn it on it works the best and just wrap it and have it on while wraped for 30 min

[nmosely1988]

I've been playing playstation for 12 years and I've never seen one do that. Also I just found a PSone just like that at Goodwill with two controllers, three games, and a memory card for $12. Anybody, knows where i can get a Super Nintendo let me know.

[peteygasperandfox496]

Are you sure what the problem is not from the cd?

[koaussda]

what an easy problem broh..

if you want to play that game.. oh just add me my facebook flaming_boy95@yahoo.com

[ChanceTheRipper]

hey i have a problem too but different i turn on my ps1 and it shows the white title screen with the sony sign then i goes to a screen with white squares and it shows cd or memory card and i cant get out. help plz/.

[spongebobcrazy24]

i'm having the same problem except no game music in the background it just stays on that screen! i can't play any games on it and it's the only classic game console i have!

[christy123367]

@spongebobcrazy24 wow i have a ps2 and tht is a classic game console

[Naid785]

try to shake the ps1 when it is playing bro it will work trust me

[Mrmet7557]

no iam not going to help a stupid ps1 my is so much better

[Mrmet7557]

just get a new one did you think about that

[aquaticanimals]

OOOO! you have the same fun game as me!

on topic: I seriously don't know what to do, but try to blow the ps1 system, If it breaks, I am terribly sorry, cause I did it with mine and it works.

[hendoballs]

Q-tip with rubbing alcohol (not to much) very very lightly then with the dry q-tip. I got one working with this method not to long ago. If it doesnt work check e-bay for a parts laser they are very simple to switch out. Good luck

[OpEnCatala]

I had a similar problem.

Mine doesn't read anything. Just stop in the white screen, and then go to the menu. (As if I didn't put a CD.)

Did u find a solution? Maybe we need to change the laser. The problem is... Where we can find a new one?

My english is a bit strange, but I think you can understand. Greetings from Spain =)

[lordsofkoble]

Oh another tip from the old days is turning the console on it's side or upside down while it loads, that worked on mine before i cleaned it .

Good luck n' don't give up :)

[lordsofkoble]

I had a similar fault on my PSX and I used compressed air in a can . the type you get in computer shops, i got mine on ebay for £5. I have fix a ton of consoles over the years and the thing is it is usually just dust and dirt that is stopping them working. Watch a few disassembly tutorials on here get some cleaning products e.g comp air or switch/contact cleaner cotton buds and i think you'll get your ps1 running again.

[mattyredrock]

where do u buy lens cleaner?

[bacovia2004]

@mattyredrock try resetting the psone,it works.

[101jonas4ever]

@bacovia2004 how do you do that?

[bacovia2004]

@101jonas4ever press on the power button on the psx,then press it again.

[lalaki006]

@mattyredrock you can get it from ebay and amazon

[lilryanps3]

get some lens cleaner and spray that lens cleaner on a clothe, rub the lens carefully and wait until it dries then it should work,or even some aftershave will work depending if it has alchol in it

[mattyredrock]

when i try to play,the screen stays on the same frame. but the music of the game keeps going! :( I AM SO CONFUSED. WHY WOULD IT DO THAT!

[md678685]

@mattyredrock Ah. At one point, I was playing Klona 2 on my PS2 Original(which was released at the same time as the PS1), and my PS2 randomly froze. It might have been because I had been playing TV:OTR, or it could have been a Sony manufacturing defect.

@Haunted360 @zayedaltamimi

This console is called a PlayStation Original, not a PlayStation 2 X. But you don't seem to be confusing the consoles.

[sideswipe3511]

@mattyredrock here are some steps on how to fix your playstation

1. get a washcloth

2. wash it with water and clean off all the errors on the disc

3. reinsert the game disc

if this does not work use an airspray and clean the errors off the ps1

hope this helps you fix your ps1

[lucas66568]

@mattyredrock dude to me happens the same thing except that the music doesn't go and sometimes the logo is all censored up
