PS1 will not read discs until warmed up (resolved)

This hopefully is unrelated to my PS1Digital install, so I hope you don't mind my asking here. My PS1 works great with the PS1Digital installed except I now have to let it warm up for a few minutes before it will read discs. My assumption is that either my laser is going bad or the PSU needs recapped, but I'm not sure and do not have the tools to test capacitors in circuit. This started happening after my PS1Digital install, but since everything works great and tests great (all 24 hearts, great video, great audio, etc.), I suspect it would only be related due to additional power draw. If anyone has encountered this before or knows where I should look, your advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

The drive was more and more reliable the more I used the system, but I installed an XStation and now everything is even better. I really appreciate the integration of the XStation and PS1Digital.
