HI,
My psp is a PSP-1003 with 3.5 version Firmware on it and recently the UMD has stopped working. WHen i put in a umd it doesnt even recognise that a disc is inside on top of the it whirs and clicks constantly and i can see the umd motor is constantly spinning(even when there is no disc in it clicks and whirrs), i can't see the laser light on and top i dont see it moving from left to right(or right to left?).
anyway i'm hoping someone can help me out and advice.. would a motor change solve the issue.. would upgrade of firmware help? its not a hacked PSP so i havent tried games from the USB so not sure if that would help although i am tempted.
Also lastly has anybody else experienced these problems? i've been on the llama tutorials and i've also opened a psp before to change the cover(not this one but a friends) would a new laser help or would it be the motor or lastly could the motherboard be dying as i've noticed it crash on me alot when i'm trying to browse webpages such as the bbc.
if this is in the wrong section then i apologise in advance.
thanks
