Have I killed my Saturn

[Funkstar De Luxe]

Today when I went to play my my Saturn the games wouldn't load. So I left the CD lid opon to see what was happening. The CD started to spin and load then it began to spin BACKWARDS! I turned off the machine and then back on again, the CD booted fine. However the characters were just large black blocks! Now when I try to play a game the CD spins for about 1/100th of a second and then gradually slow down until it's stoppped. During this proccess the lazer is moving in and out rapidy as if it is trying to focus. What can I do? Have I killed it by doing the swap trick?

Ps I've also noticed that with a burned game the cd tries to spin but with an official game it make no effort

Sounds liek the drives going

open it up, remove the plugs from the appropiate connectors and replace them securly

if it still doesnt work look for a new saturn, they arent that difficult to come accross and arent expensive either

Use a 30lb sledgehammer to check if the drive works properly.

If it isn't, then it's fucked.
