Magic 2 Question!

[breezy]

hi guys, i have a ps2 v.7 with a magic2 installed using sonydru500a and verbatim dvd-r's nero and record now max. i have made backups of all my games and the dvd-r backups work but most of the time i have to reset several times before it would finally load. is there any way to make it load better? this v.7 is brand new. i would just like some pointers please! is the ground not big/short enough, laser adjustment?

thanks
