regarding cleaning disc: its one with brushes, but its specially designed for bluray drives -> brushes have a different length than normal dvd cleaning drives... so should be ok

regarding warranty: as it seems im only 10 months out of warranty, i thought i own my ps3 already one year longer, but that isnt possible as my version came out late 2007. Thx for the heads up.

@Mikeanheath: thats what i will do next! Thx. just have to buy a lens cleaning fluid.

Which cleaning disc is it,  when I called Sony Support about cleaning my PS3 blu-ray drive they said using a cleaning disc that has brushed will void the warranty, not really a problem for you since you dont have one.   But, The reason was because on a blu-ray drive the lens is closer to the disc then a standard DVD drive.   So the brushes can knock it out of alignment.  Thats why they have brushless cleaning discs now.  Which specifically say for the PS3

Wow, thats new to me. But as my broken drive was the rason to get a cleaning disc, i doubt it was the disc which caused the problem. ;)

Im now off to get a cleaning fluid...

Gonna tell what has happened. Cheers
