Chosen Solution

I just got a Fat PS2 and the game Everywhere Roadtrip but when I put the game in there is a grinding noise as if the ‘disc spinner’ isn’t finding the hole or something. I put in a DVD, I haven’t gotten a second game to test, and that seems to work with no issue. I looked at the disc and there isn’t any warping or anything I can see at least.

Your Laser is dying, I had this problem with my Xbox 360. You got to change the laser screws or buy a new laser. https://www.dreamcast.nu/en/playstation-
