Like I’m going to get a relevant reply out of this...

I’ve got an unusual problem with my PSP. It seems to seek rather erratically, back and forth in rapid succession, while it’s obviously trying to reach the inner area of the disc. The head drive motor jerks back and forth like it doesn’t know which way to turn, with a bias somewhat of the direction it’s supposed to be turning (two steps left, one step right, kind of thing).

Anyone else noticed a similar sort of problem with their PSP (slim model)? I sort of think I should just buck up and buy a new UMD drive base for it, but I really dun wanna… but it makes loading games a **** when it runs so ****ing slow. I simply couldn’t play Vice City Stories on this thing, because the cut-scenes took 2 or 3 minutes to load… =\

Cue useless replies.
