The open button on the PS1

[newt42]

Arent PS1s like $10?

I think a little more, but PS1s have been exceedingly cheap since the PS2 is mostly backwards compatible(99% is good enough for me). So another PS1, with cables and controllers probably won't run you too much if you can't stand having it replaced. One thing though: do you have any idea what's happening to it? Is it the actual latch or is something else forcing it to open back up?

That's actually a really good question. I took a look at the latch and everything apears to be in good shape. I'm in airport right now, (arriving from my great grandmothers funeral) so I'll take another look at it tonight.

[Ack]

Damn dude, sister's got the Swine Flu, there's a death in the family, and your PS1's having trouble? Take as much time as you need on getting back to us, chief. Don't stress about it.

Take it apart, dip a Q tip in cooking oil, rub it on the tab that slides when you close it and you are good for a few years
