*How long | *How long the screen zooms into the blue clouds depends on a few factors; whenever there is a hard disk inserted, if the hard disk is corrupted, if the PSBBN is installed in the HDD, how long the console takes to boot up the software, etc. It ranges from instantaneous to about twenty seconds. | ||
*Depending on how much data you have on a PS2 Memory Card, there will be white blocks all over the screen when you turn on the PS2. This only happens if a Memory Card and/or Memory Cards with saved data is inserted into the Memory Card slots. As a game gets played more and more, its block will become an ever-growing tower with a misty trail behind it. The screen will be empty if there is no Memory Card inserted. | *Depending on how much data you have on a PS2 Memory Card, there will be white blocks all over the screen when you turn on the PS2.

After the screen zooms into the blue clouds is {{color|red}} clouds of mist or smoke spiraling around a moving {{color|red}} light. A glass cube zooms into view and starts to revolve around the light as a message appears saying "Please insert a PlayStation or PlayStation 2 format disc." (this appears in a different language depending on what language your PlayStation 2 is set on, e.g. "Por favor, inserte un disco de formato PlayStation o PlayStation 2." in Spanish). Another glass cube that is further away from us comes into view from behind the text, and also revolves around the light. | ||

'''Audio Trivia:''' Similarly to the 1st logo, the music is generated from a sequence of different PCM audio files from the BIOS software (with about 17 included), all played in different pitches and playback speeds. The other sounds available are used for the RSoD screen, the PS2 logo, and the menu. | '''Audio Trivia:''' Similarly to the 1st logo, the music is generated from a sequence of different PCM audio files from the BIOS software (with about 17 included), all played in different pitches and playback speeds.
