i replaced the laser in my benq drive the other day. ever since it has been making a grinding / scratching sound, and not being able to read my backups. keep getting mixed media and unrecognized disc errors. does anyone know what could cause this? thanks in advance for help, and i apologize if i put this in the wrong forum.

check to make sure you didnt lose the spring in the plastic gear that connects the laser to the worm gear! also check to see that the screw you put in is tight!

thanks. you were right on the money with that one. the screw that holds the clip to the laser was stripped out! while i fixed that issue i decided to check "pot" of laser with a multimeter. the reading came back at 3.02, is that pretty low for a laser just out of the factory? should i send it back to the retailer for another one? thank you again for your help
