[QUOTE="SylverReZ, post: 9980827, member: 610331"] [USER=445180]@KleinesSinchen[/USER] This could be the result of a failing drive, which happens to all disc-based consoles really. Try cleaning the lens with IPA and Q-Tips, don't put too much pressure on the laser as it is extremely fragile and could break very easily. Another way, as previously mentioned, would be to re-adjust the pot trim to a slightly lower resistance as a last resort. In other words, you only have one shot, and if you overdo it, then congratulations, you've completely fucked up your drive. If all of this doesn't work out for you, then your only options are to either buy a second-hand drive replacement, which can cost you a lot of money from what I've seen, or a broken Wii to salvage the drive out of. [automerge]1666980473[/automerge] [USER=221542]@godreborn[/USER] It all boils down to the drives in general, the lasers in them tends to wear out overtime the more you use the drives often. The same happened to one of my Plextor drives (which I use to rip copy-protected games), one being the PX-760A which for some reason has trouble reading some DVDs. [/QUOTE]
