Does the disc spin? Does it make any noises as like its getting caught on anything?

Just fixed a fat model recently the spin motor was gone in the drive that spins the disc.

If the disc spins then it's most likely the laser, if it doesn't spin then its the spin motor or getting caught on something (has happened).

Yep sounds like replacement laser, no fix apart from that. May download some games until that.
