But prob is its not picking up the cd? like when it takes in the CD and it spins up and then stops, i can hear the lens of the laser move like if its focusing? Is there something i am missing. Its a New laser, followed the instructions to the letter, removed the solder to preven electrostatic break down.

    is it not cheaper to just buy a new player?.. in other words "how much?"

    It was over the €100 mark. The DVD player was a high-end player so I didn't want to lose it. Might be cheaper to get a new CD player though.
