I tried using a swap/slide card softmod to work the disc tray. After turning off my PS2 from the first attempt I could not even play normal games and "disc read error" shows on the screen.

Could my attempt have physically tampered something else inside the PS2 and is locking up proper disc reading?

last night i ended up removing my top completely, and took off the disc drive itself. A while ago i was using the cogswap alot, and it must've busted off a couple of the gears on the bottom of the drive tray. Because it wouldnt close tight, i always had to push it in so it wouldnt rub the disc on the edge of the tray. But with me taking all that junk off i cant really see that that would cause a disc read error. Its all mechanical, u might want to try getting a cleaning disc (for the laser) and using that. If you cant find one, or are interested in taking the top off your ps2 completely off (to clean the laser/cogswap without having to slide that peg back and forth) I can help, just give me the word (its stupidly simple, i dont see why anyone would waste money on fliptops when they can just through the whole top away (cosmetic??))
