Ok, ready all. I have found the solution for the Lite-On SOSW-852S no read problem. Tilt your laptop! Can you believe it?! Here you go:

1. Insert DVD
2. Raise the DVD-side of the machine to somewhere between 30 and 75 degrees
3. Rocking between these degrees is optional, I have not determined whether the rocking helps
4. Eject and repeat

I can usually get the drive to read a DVD in 5-15 minutes. Sucks, but at least I can play Oblivion.
