I need to remove the date from the screen , I have figured out how to change the date but not how to remove it , thanks

The unit is faulty and needs to be replaced.

To change the language settings on a Playstation 2 console, proceed as follows:

1. If there is a game disc in the console, remove it and then power the unit on/off.

2. When the opening screen appears, choose the bottom option of the two. You will see the foreign text, then the time and date beneath it.

NOTE: If you do not see the date, scroll through the options until the date appears.

3. Press UP once to get to the language select option.

4. Press X to select this option, and then select the choice to the right (English) by pressing X.

5. All the text should change to English.

6. Return to the Time and Date Setup and verify or set your time zone.

7. Press CIRCLE to exit the configuration menu.

8. Insert the game disc and navigate to the Browser menu to select the game or browse the memory card.
NOTE: If the PS2 is currently in another language, then you need to figure out which language it is in so that you can look up the translation for ENGLISH. Once you have that figured out, it should be a matter of changing it back and calling it a day.

Step 1: Press Menu key
Step 2: Press Park 3 key
Step 3: Enter password followed by # key ex. 543#
Step 4: Enter 9819
Step 5: Enter date with # in between. Ex. 01#26#2009#

Hopefully this will solve your problem.
