If they are both ps2 style then try a serial port mouse....the ps2 ports may be bad or drivers may have gotten corrupted. If the serial mouse works you will at least be able to go into device manager and check things out.

Well, I do know what happened.  See if it plays DVDs or see if it give you disc read errors on PS2 games.  If it does then what has happened is the laser lens is misaligned.  You can't fix this yourself and this type of damage is not covered under warranty.  You will either have to send it back to Sony to get fixed OR get a new PS2.  That's my best guess though it may be something else.

try unplugging the tv and leave it off for 5 mintues.  It could reset the whole system.  Then you'll have to reprogram the clock and channel setup, etc.. Then you can set up parental control. Hope it works. In some case it dont.

If you had windows XP and had set it up prior to leaving home yes you could have.\n\nSet up remote assistance when you get home and you wont have theis issue again ;)\n\nGL

the remote should come with a paper that lists the different codes needed to program it for the appliances you have. if it didn't call the customer help line.

I am not the best at this stuff but look at sites giving multiregional hacks or codes.I did my Philips DVP3500 and it worked great. Get the free ones, some people try to charge. Just put in make and model of DVD followed by "hack" or "multinational code"Good luck.

special tip just for you dude! do not unplug or swith off the mains of your box, just leave it on standby everytime coz they get updated automatically whenever there is a new free channels, codes  whatever. (you swith it off the mains you loose data  updates.......then problems for you to get new free channel from your older box) *trust me*

i had the same problem but with a SNES.  I called the company that I got it from and they walked me through the process.  then I unplugged it and it wouldn't work again, so try calling who you bought it from, they'd be able to help the most depending on who they are.  I bought mine from cliffracer.com I think

Depends on if you want "Pirated" versions or demo versions... I would suggest the demo and then work on buying a serial... Check below.

Radio Shack used to carry these. They work great on remote controls too.
