I have a modded PS2 with messiah chip, i've had it for about 2 years.
a few months back it started grinding with cdr backups and not loading them.... dvdr backups would also grind but they would work.... after a few weeks dvdr games were only loading every 5 or 6 times i tried to play them.
Now nothing will load at all, dvd's, original ps2 and backups all create horrible grinding noises when i put them in.

I doubt this is a modchip problem as surely then originals would still work?
Do i need a new laser, or is it something else?

Cheers Guys

It is very possible that the laser is dead. You can try to adjust it...but its a long shot maybe worth a try.

Have you checked your games? Hopefully they aren't getting all scratched up by this.
