Attempt to fix PS3(DRE)

Sup folks. Most of you who've been keeping an eye on me know that my PS3 DRE'd on me around a month after I bought it(September). It's been sitting in my room for quite sometime now. I can't play any disc, whether it's from blu rays to cds to dvds...nothing. But I can still play my downloaded games(the ones I play the most anyways...).

I was relying on Sony's help to fix my problem but sadly, I lost my reciept, thinking it wouldn't matter because Microsoft just checks the Serial Number for repairs. Yeah...that sucks.

Anyways...I'm going to attempt to fix my PS3's blu ray drive lens. Just to tell you guys, Sony won't touch your system at all if you take off the warranty sticker!!!!(This also stands if you considered paying them $150 to fix it...they won't do it!).

I finally got a torx screwdriver that could take out the security screw that's under the warranty sticker..wai...huh?

Oh crap..I forgot! I gotta go get some alcohol when I get to getting the whole system apart to get the blu ray drive out...I'll keep you guys posted when I get back...
