"disc drive empty" error...

hey, great to see a sega saturn board still up and running. we hooked the old model 2 ST-KEY, puppy up to the big screen to play a bit of world series 98 and it worked just fine. however, when i tried to play numerous other games, such as bug too! WWF in your house and a few others, it went to the spaceship screen with a "disc drive empty" error.

so, off of ebay i get alien trilogy. brand new, still in its factory plastic. take her out, put it in, works fine. so i'm all 8) hey it works...

so i go back to WWF in your house, and it didn't work again, same error. any idea what's going on with my saturn? is there anything i can do? clean the lens? help.

i never swap any games or anything, and i've tried it with the ST-key in and without it. i've just ordered NBA jam TE off of ebay and i would be very upset if that didn't work as well.

any help would be appreciated muchly.
 
Maybe the laser intensity needs tweaking.

There's a guide here. It's specifically for upping the laser power to use CDRWs, but the same principle may apply for your Saturn's problem.
