@Makurou yeah you should be ablt to...you must I repeat MUST get the corretn blu-ray drive though...Research it...but by the sound of things you need a KES-400 blu ray laser.

what I'm wondering is if I have to replace my disc drive...would I still be able to play my PS2 games. I suppose PS2 games are read and emulated with the Emotion Engine inside? all I know is I have a 60gb and I ain't giving it up for shit.

@DeepSpeech

[DeepSpeech]

oh.... i never thought of drive problem. i thought tis hardware problem. how to change driver? plz help. apreciated.

@DeepSpeech

jus a FYI, all computers are supposed to have an OS to operate. PS3 isn't different. So, if the driver stop reading, it is likely to be the blu-ray driver. The laser power has been fading and initially it stops reading Blu-Ray because it needs total power, then with a lower power it is ok for reading other medias. Now that it stops at all you should change your driver.

update os? operating system? no i dont have any os installed. yes internet work, usb ect.... and dvd movie work but now it dont work. now all disc dont work.
