serious problem with my umd drive

[wiredforpower]

Alright so heres the story, I kept attempting to use GTA Liberty City Stories and nothing came up in the XMB menu it just shows the loading button at the bottom right of the screen. So I went out to my local blockbuster to get Winning Eleven, this didnt work either. I'm a little upset, I think my umd drive is somehow busted. And no, I didnt disable the UMD drive in the recovery menu, 100% sure of that.

Guys, help. I'm too broke to buy another psp

move the laser thingy, but make sure do not touch the laser eye, from left to right, and test it, keep on trying till it works.
i have another method but requires to disassemble the psp

no all I hear is the drive sound spinning, but not the normal other noise of what I assume to be the laser reading the umd

[acn010]

does it? or does it crackle like six very fast time and pause and repeats again

[wiredforpower]

theres no crackle noise at all. Just the drive spinning the umd
