Hey guys, so i bought a psp awhile ago second hand. Its a 2000 model the crisis core limited edition.
The thing is when i bought it the guy had cfw on it so i was playing with that for awhile but i went and bought a few actual games and tried to play them long behold... the psp doesnt read them. Like it makes noises showing its trying to work and ive checked to see if the laser lights up and it does.
Ive looked around everywhere for a solution, cleaning with cotton tip, sliding the laser holder thing to the side, knocking it a few times etc but nothing works.
On very rare occasions the psp will recognize the UMD but this only lasts 5 minutes max and then it freezes...
So atm im quite a sad panda  and not sure what to do. Its a very hard item to come by so i dont want to give up on it. So does anyone have any ideas? like who i could go to repair it thats trustworthy and all that..
Any info would be heaps appreciated thanks

It's been a week since you posted this so you've prob fixed it by now, but i have a PSP 2002 and it does the same thing , eventually i worked out it was because the disk door didn't close properly, if i put a small folded piece of paper behind the UMD it reads with no issues
