Follow this guide to adjust the laser https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cKsWwi7qIE

Once you get the disc drive working then you'll need to buy a dreampi kit from http://www.dreamcastlive.net/shop.html

There may be other things causing it too. Check the model number on the bottom sticker. If your Dreamcast model is HKT-3000 you should be fine, but HKT-5000 and HKT-5100 can't read burned games/homebrew, and you wouldn't be able to use them without a BIOS mod. With the newer models you can only play original GD-ROM games released in Japan.
