Well I have a problem with my PS2, lately when I play an old game, like say DRIV3R, the sky turns blue after I damage any car around, until I get far away enough for it to disappear. Also there are these black (sometimes white) sublimonal pieces of what appear to be a bunch of black, or white glass shards flying at warp speed. I have the slimline PS2, the one where they decided to put the fan right there NO AIR ventilates, so it's just moving hot air around. 
Also it sometimes read disks whenever it feels like, even when it's brand new CD's. It always plays GT3 for some reason though.
I think I might have to resort to the beer treatment or the flood treatment like I did for my fat PS2. (Not recommended) I threw the fat PS2 into a good amount of water, waited 8 hours, then it finally dried up. It was reading disks like new again, then after a while it just gave up.
For the beer treatment, we didn't have pure alcohol laying around, so beer had to make the cut. We used it to wipe the lens on the fat PS2, which made it work for a few months or so. Then I did the water treatment which only worked for a little while.
The things games put me through...
Another thing is when I played Need For Speed: Carbon, sometimes the board is just black at the bottom and nothing is wrong with the CD at all.
Is my PS2 dying?
