Not entirely sure if it's a major problem, but my ps2 is starting to flicker. Well the screen is anyway. At 1st I thought it was the power in my house, so I turned on my lights, and continued playing my game for 30 minutes. During that time it continued to flicker, but my lights did not. So now I check my cord to my ps2, and everything was A ok.

So my question is what is causing it to flicker? Could the heat be causing such problems? Or is my ps2 about to burn out?

Forgot to mention that when it does flicker, the sound goes out with it, and sometimes I get a blue screen (input screen from vcr) and it pops back on. (Was trying to look at a dvd as well >_>)
