"insert disc" error when using cd-r on messiah

[thanku]

Hi

I just recently ran into a new error on my ps2. When I use CD-r which I have burned myself I get insert Disc error several times before the games actually start. I never happend before as I have had messiah for some months now. I started happening last week. I never got "insert Disc" then. also It never happens when I use DVD-r or DVD-movies. All the CD-r games I have never start up at the first try.

I have read something about that the reset button may be curropt and the PS2 thinks it's an PSX game, but that can be because I can start DVD-r's. Also I never happened before, it just happened all of the sudden.

I burn the games at 16x on Verbatim Datalife CD-r's, which I think are good CD-r medias. Do you guys think that the laser had had it enough? I have heard roumers about CD-r's fucking up the laser, which the loud sounds explain when I play CD-r's...

Thank u for ur help

Thanku
