know what you mean Master... my dreamcast been grinding too lately !

not that much but sometimes even an original disk is harder to read !

oh well... sorry to disappoint, but disk cleaner barely ever works. seriously the best way to do it is to open the console throw some pressurized AIR into it to clean everything up faster then you think... no need to go up to the lens, believe me, it takes a lot for a lens like those to get dusty... unless like me you stay in a basement where the only thing can be found is cement dust which covers everything !

in all cases, i doubt your lens to be the problem.

as for the grinding noise... well mine comes from the covert. when i play it open it stops doing it, so i guess its not dust who makes it. but i don't know for you or if you even checked it.. check from where the grinding noise comes from and see how that could be fixed ! but i suggest that you first throw some AIR in there... it may just be your problem !

PRESSURIZED AIR CAN = 10$
so its not much and it will last for about 6 months if you use it once 2 weeks !
it really is worth it !

good luck my friend !
