My PS2 is no longer reading discs. It simply gives "disc read error"
when I put a game in. Does anyone have any troubleshooting tips? Is
the system broken, or do I have resources to call upon?

Dirty laser and/or excess dust buildup is usually the causes of failed PS2.
Go to www.gamefaqs.com and click on PS2 on the top. Then look for PS2
hardware FAQ link and click that. Last I checkd, there were 2 different DRE
FAQs there.
