Hello guys, I am new to GT3. I got it a week ago and I absolutely loved it but I have a slight problem now. The game started freezing on load, it would say the stuff about drinking and driving, then it would say Sony Entertainment America presents... Boom black screen. I sit for 10 minutes, nothing. I thought maybe my disk had a problem so I went to clean it but no luck. So I look my PS2 apart and cleaned the CD drive's lens with a Qtip soaked with Isopropyl alcohol. I put my GT3 back it, it would get through the loading screen. BUT now it would freeze whenever I chose a race and clicked the ENTRY button.

What do I do? :drool: :nervous: :yuck:
 
That looks like it could be the problem. If you've eliminated the possiblity of scratches and disc scratches etc., the chip is probably causing it.
 
one more thing ...

I bought my first PS2 a year ago, with modchip and tried with not original GT3 (yes I am ashamed). Every time I wanted to race on certain few tracks the game froze. I didn't know what it was, untill I burned the CD-R with GT3 again with lower speed. Then it worked perfectly. But at the next paycheck, I got the original one, so that was it ...

But after one year that PS2 started not to read originals or copies and also freezing randomly. I returned it to "the store", and they found a problem with chip. I traded it in for a PSTwo without chip.
 
sorry, but i can't help but find this a little humorous :lol:

its like reading a label on a toaster that says "Do not insert knives into toaster while plugged in"
but you think "What the heck! It's my toaster! Who are they to tell me what I can and can't put in it!"
ZAP!

same thing
