CDR Going Bad?

quoth Kurt Wall:

may be a voltage problem. slight variations in voltage can cause the 
laser to send its light to a dimension just above or just beyond our 
own, which the residents thereof sometimes consider an act of war. 
dimensional treaty requires that the offending machine freeze as an act 
of expiation, and appropriate circuitry is built in to all drives. 
there was much ugliness before this circuitry became mandatory.

either that or it's broken.
