PS2 freezes

[bugger]

Any idea why the picture starts to freeze after abt 15/20 min whilst playing ?

Try clearing the fans out - they may have dust in them.

also try keeping your PS2 in an open area i.e. on top of table and not inside a cupboard. standing the PS2 up on it's side helps (if you decide to make this a habit I suggest you get the vertical support stand).

the PS2 will normally freeze when it overheats (hence why it only happens after 15-20 mins). as you clean out the fan it gives better air circulation to cool the PS2 down.

On the same lines , on Some of my "umm" backup disks , the PS2 Freezes for no apparent reason at different times , I could play it for a couple of hours or a couple of minutes and it just freezes.

Does anyone know if this is the Mod chip \ disks or PS2 that could be cause this ?

Your help is appricated.
