Welcome to PS1 & PS2 Help & troubleshooting. Disc read errors, a softmod that will not launch, OPL refusing to see your drive, or an old console that has stopped working altogether: ask here and someone will help you out.
What belongs here
• Disc reading and laser problems.
• Softmod, modchip and ODE issues.
• OPL, storage and network loading problems.
• Video, sound, controller and memory card faults.
What goes elsewhere
• General chat and collections: General discussion.
• Build logs and mod guides: Mods & ODEs.
How to ask so people can help
1. Console and exact model number, for example SCPH-7502 or SCPH-39004.
2. Any mods installed: modchip, ODE, softmod or MechaPwn, with versions.
3. For OPL: version, storage method and how the drive is formatted.
4. What happens, including any error text, word for word.
5. What you have already tried.
A clear title helps: "SCPH-77004 OPL not detecting USB drive" gets better answers than "PS2 not working".
Quick things to try first
• Try more than one disc. If only some fail, the laser or the discs may be the problem.
• Clean the lens gently with isopropyl alcohol and a cotton bud, with the console unplugged.
• For USB loading, try a smaller drive, a different port and the format OPL expects.
• Try a different memory card, video cable and controller to rule them out.

Be kind, keep it in English (other languages are translated automatically), and no spam, keyboard mashing or self-promotion spam. Use Report rather than replying to rule-breaking posts. This thread is locked, so start a new thread with your question.
