There is no evidence of disc corruption with a failing PSU. People 
often interpret the disc errors resulting from not being able to read 
the disc as corruption, but the contents of the disc are unaffected.

In such circumstances DO NOT attempt a repair with DiscKnight, as this
could cause the disc to be corrupted. If in doubt as to what sort of 
problem you have, contact me first for advice.
