yeah that happens, sounds like that motor has died, no easy fix for that. No if the lens is moving and the disc is spinning, but its not booting the disc, there is a fix for that.
initially the disk spin when the lid is closed but the lens dont move back and forward. where is a good reliable gd rom replacement seller?

buying a used dc lis a bit hard, and if you buy over the internet the freight is astronomical and the lens may be near its end, so wont buying a lens be cheaper? i heard stories of people buying 3 or more just for the replacement parts.:eek:Quote:

I bought two extra DCs (one for my friend) at Gamecrazy for $25.
If you could get the replacement part that would be good, because then someone else can get a DC.
lik sang did sell the part for like £20 at one time and thats before p&p, they are out of stock at the mo. I would guess ebay

thats what you want there, but good luck finding it
edit: ok i googled and found this

but i have never used them or heard of them, so use at your own risk (lik-sang are great though, shame they have none)
Thanks, just recieved one today from Golden Shop in Hong Kong. delivery pricey but fast.Quote:

You can also go to EB. Last I checked, they still sold DCs for $25.
