Thnks cause mine broke and a game was in there and i got it out!
@theyAREnoONE same here lol
managed to bugger my disk drive so it wouldnt open but thanks to this managed to fix the old girl back up with minimal stress, cheers eh!
The long silver ribbon that is attached to the reset/open buttons sort of came loose from the main part before i was done disassembling everything. Is this a bad thing or can i just keep disassembling and reattach it later?

@vincentsclone
Yea, mine's pretty disgusting inside right now.
yes for the optical drive firmware and menu settings,The battery maintains the system settings and hour when the ps2 is out of ac power. 3 v Lithium battery CR2032
theres battery in there???
take it apart to fix it, change the battery or install a modchip.
THOSE DAMN THINGS TEAR LIKE KLENEX.
you forgot to include removal of the arc shield..that little clear plastic piece….can be kinda tricky reinstalling it. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT PEOPLE, IF ANYTHING ON THE POWER-BOARD COMES INTO CONTACT WITH METAL IE THE FRAME…ZAPPP WILL BE THE LAST SOUND YOUR PS2 EVER MAKES.
its the little 7pin white port between the two brown ports
