Before I google has anyone got any tips on how to clean a PS2? I'm quite comfortable getting my screwdrivers out and opening it up.
I keep getting "disc read" errors and I bought it in 2002 so it's getting on a bit now.
The DVDs and game discs are immaculate so I'm presuming there's a fair bit of dirt in the PS2.
Any (sensible) tips?
Karma for good suggestions.
