1)Never had a problem with blue discs but I've never really listened closely to the noise it makes.
2)Well, since most PS2 games are dvds, I can't see how DvDs could damage the laser... it's meant to read dvds...
3)The blue discs are cds while the non-blue ones are dvds.
4)Go with smooth. It'll make those primitive textures in PSone games look somewhat better/smoother... useless unless you're using PSone games. Standard just leaves it PSone style... |

| Do you have a PS2 that came out during the first shipment on the day it released? If so, those PS2s had problems with their lenses deteriating. |

1)There is no problem with the disc or your ps2. You only need to be concerned if the hum turns into a chainsaw like sound.
2)I heard DVD movies can screw it up, but I dunno how true it is.
3)Blue are cd's, silver are dvd's
4)It's for when you play psx games, putting it on smooth is supposed to make 3d graphics look better, but I dont really notice anything. |

1. I doubt theres a problem since a lot of PS2 games are blue discs. It's probably just a sound u have to get used to.
2. Maybe he doesn't have a modchip, maybe his gameshark (either chip or cd) is damaged, maybe his ps2 is one of the screwed up ones from the factory, maybe it was overheated. |
