I found that out the hard way...i was getting DRE all the time until i opened it up and gave the whole thing a clean, using and Automatic/Electric Wheel Pump with the shell of a cheep ball pen (biro) to blow away the dust from the case.

And for the laser i had used a cotton bud and gently cleaned it...i had no need to move the white cog..or i think i might have just not a significant amount.

i can read any original disc, yet no backups whatsoever (using Ritek Ridata g04) also it doesn't read backed up DVD-R movies, but i don't care i got a v10 for my back-ups and a dvd player for my movies. I'll be giving it a HD so hopefully it will be able to play it straight from there.
