			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s been more than 6 months that my <strong>Wii</strong> was producing an awful <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawn_mower" target="_blank">lawn mower</a> sound in the <strong>disk drive</strong>, and I finally decided to <strong>open it up</strong> and &#8220;try&#8221; to <strong>fix</strong> the problem.</p>
<p>Since I&#8217;ve seen other people with <strong>similar problems</strong> on YouTube, such as:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/12-NW8SEnME&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/12-NW8SEnME&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>I decided to put my experience on how <strong>I fixed it</strong>.</p>
<p>You will need <strong>Nintendo screwdriver</strong>, which you can easily find on eBay.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve used the following video as a guide during the <strong>disassembling</strong> of my console:</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/g8epujddQTc&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/g8epujddQTc&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Now how I did it:</p>
<p>There is <strong>one screw above your Wii&#8217;s drive</strong> that is right above the power button, <strong>loose it a little</strong> and <strong>stick something</strong> to level the plate a little bit up. You can <strong>test</strong> this with your Wii still opened until you <strong>don&#8217;t hear that noise</strong> anymore.</p>
<p>Here is a front picture of my fixed Wii (<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pirelenito/2665570671/">follow the link to see the Flickr notes</a>):</p>
<p><a title="Front of my Wii open. by pirelenito, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/pirelenito/2665570671/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3114/2665570671_0d7dbdfe0b_m.jpg" alt="Front of my Wii open." width="240" height="180" /></a></p>
<p>I should have taken a picture from above, but I was too happy that the problem was gone, that I just remember to register how I did it after most of my Wii had been put back together already.</p>
<p>Hope it helps someone!</p>
