    You can use an alternative method like the tissue and straw method listed here or you can try a tissue and tape like this instead of using the magic keys. Both methods serve and achieve one purpose, which is to block sensors preventing your PS2 from detecting the swap from taking place so you can play a backup or import game.

    "Woah! dont unscrew anything, just use a dull knife to move the laser."
    What are you going on about,some people just talk some right crap! Without Magic Keys and Without taking the back off its still dead easy to cover one sensor and the disc break BUT the one you will struggle with is the infamous back left hing sensor which isnt actually visible and is partially blocked by the said hinge bracket.Even with Magic Keys its a real struggle but it is possible but purely down to there specific design and a hell of alot of luck!
    Id say Magic Keys and ive never heard of moving the laser with a knife? Care to enlighten the world on this new revolutionary way???!!!
    Thought not.

    Seriously what the hell are you talking about? If you are referring to the 'slide/knife trick', the original poster stated he has a slim PS2...

    here's a diagram of the tissue and tape mod: http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/3808/ps2slimmodaq3.png

    aaaaahahahahahahhahahahahaahahaahhaaa
    that has got to be one of the noobiest newbie ideas i have every heard. Especially since it has nothing at all to do with the original post.
    Go with what Z3120 or orthogonl have posted and either get the magic keys or attempt one of the alternative mods yourself.
