Ill help all of you out with a bad burner laser. The model laser you're looking for is an SF-DB11. This laser can be found in some older sony dvd burners. A Sony DRU-710A or a Sony DW-Q28A. It is probably in other burners around this time frame, but I do know that these 2 had the laser in it. A year or so ago, i put a new burner laser in my 7500 from one of these models(cant remember which) and it is working fine. Word of warning, installation is not for the faint of heart.

When I go to paste the xosd folder, it comes up with a "naming conflict" and asks me if I wish to overwrite it.

There are much better and easier ways to play PlayStation games than these things.

AHHH I GOT ONE! also important to note - the machine that installs FreeMcBoot will install it for that machine (even in PSX mode). I had issues running FMCB on my PSX when installed from my phat PS2. Once I did manage to get my PSX into wlaunchelf, I formatted and reinstalled FMCB on the PSX itself. Now it works great! Pro tip for anyone who gets on these honking chonkers!
Very nice video. Here is how to disable the static noise: Go to [Video Settings] Then [Mute] → Yes Very simple 😉 Enjoy!

Making a paper weight useful

Really bizarre comment. Softmods aren't permanent and are completely reversible. PSX units with dead burner lasers are literally unusable paperweight as Modzville said. Also, PSX units are basically ewaste in Japan and they can be had for very little money. Only weird foreigners are interested in them for some reason. There are much better and easier ways to play PlayStation games than these things.
patched copies thats how region free works
For anyone interested to acquire this beautiful piece of hardware feel free to send me a comment. We have many systems available fully or partially working, loose or complete in box, from DESR 5000 to 7700 model. All model are provided with a pre installed PSX FreeMcBoot memory cards.
