I bought the laser and replaced my old one w/o removing the protection... at the time I was unaware I needed to do that.

My laser worked for ten minutes then quit on me. I'm back to an open tray error. It was a short lived celebration..

Have I damaged anything?

I see the three points.. I know I'm suppose to remove the brigde? Is it just the middle one or all 3?

My other laser looks exactly the same so it's no help.. I want to make sure I do this rite.

What exactly do I do to these 3 solders? just remove all 3?

There are 3 small connection point under that glob of solder. Just heat up and iron and take off the glob. Once they are unbridged, you will see what I'm talking about.

problem averted... i fit the white piece properly in the grooves and i'm back in business.. didnt have to desolder anything

I am using a liteon 7 series drive and a benq laser

The ebay store i bought from (bestusastore) said i would need to remove the anti static protection but ive been playing for 2 hours and have installed mw2 to my hardrive

played for 7 more hours.. no adverse effects from not removing antistatic... actually there was no glob of solder covering the 3 connectors... so i'm not sure if its protected or not, but it works..
