You need to try another cable and or working PC, double check connection, port/pins. The $50 charge is not worth for this troubleshooting purposes. What type of cable are you using to connect on your PS2?

The best way to really check first is by a desktop or your laptop before going for any gaming console. You just need to test/swap cables or maybe borrow one.
