Standing PSX on its side question

I am backing up games and some play fine when my PSX (SCPH-7001) is just flat in the regular position. However, some will ONLY play when I stand my psx up on its side. I'm guessing it may be a weak laser problem...

But my main question is: Are the games I just made copies of that need my psx on its side, 100% ok? Is it only the PSX's fault? I ask because I want to know if these copies are worth keeping just in case I need to make another backup in the future.

Thanks.

Oh yea I'm planning on getting a PSone (those small new ones) + chipped. will that have any compatibility effects on the games I've burned?

The problem isn't with your burns but with your psx's laser going bad.

If the game works with your psx on its side or one way or another, then the burn was fine. The only prob is with your laser.
