    ok, i have 2 issues with my PS2 slim. for one thing, my multitap doesn't work. you know, that tool that allows more than 2 people to play games. also, Swap Magic doesn't load up. it can read the disc fine but it keeps returning to the browser, i'm not sure why but i'm sure the laser is still in good condition. does anyone know how to fix these problems (hopefully without having to spend any money)?

    if your using the cd version of swap magic then your cd laser is busted.
    PS2 slims have weak lasers

    i believe the PS2 slim has its own version of the mutitap to make it
    im sure you need that version

    the CD version works perfectly, the DVD version is the one that doesn't work. that's the only disc i have that it can't read but it works on all my friend's PS2s. it's really odd, i don't think the laser is the issue.

    whoa, i never knew a PS2 slim had to get it's own multitap.

    did you check and see if your model is compatible?

    according to the swap magic website, all models are supposedly compatible
