On the sliiiight offchance that this isn't a scam, are you able to fix dead genesis carts? Cuz I have a few laying around that won't work, even after opening them up and cleaning them.

Try replacing the capacitor on the board. If that doesn't do it I've heard of Genesis cartridges dying due to static shock.

That doesn't tell me anything, so don't tell me "Search would help". Ok?

I am one who searches, unlike most people. But this still doesn't tell me much about this guy, anymore than the guy claiming to do repair.

Not to be rude, but with your constant grammar errors, syntax errors...or just plain bad use of the English language, it's very hard to lay trust in this situation...

All this just worries me deeply...

[Blanka789]

The Correct and Accepted Business Model of the DP Forums:

Step 1-Learn English fluently and write it in such a fashion.
Step 2-Build a reputation by posting, buying, and selling on these or other forums.
Step 3-Charge for your services. If you still want to remain free, provide a lot more information as to what makes you able to do that.

Your process looks something more like this:

Step 1-Make outrageous claim
Step 2-Provide a single, more than likely fake reference
Step 3-Continue a pointless argument

If you are legitimate and serious about this, provide proof. More importantly, use a spellchecker. I hate to doubt people, but I've been burned on something like this before and you are setting off big red flags all over the place.

[saferkefka]

if he wasnt in the uk, id send him a dreamcast i have here with dead controller ports to see if hes honest or not.

[raylydiard]

i am crap at spelling sorry i am in the uk

[evildragon]

Um, being in the UK is more reason to know English better.

And love the USA? I'm born, from, and living in the USA, and want out.

[evildragon]

You say you're from UK, yet your english is like that of a Nigerian scammer...hmmm.

Methinks English is not your first language, as no english speaker I know of on either side of the Atlantic speaks/types like that.

Well, at least you have a dream and positive ambition.

I'm not trying to be rude, but your first venture is to practice language skills. This is very important, specially in the business world.

You don't need to be an authorized center...you can do any repairs by yourself. As long as you establish yourself as a trustworthy individual, there will be a bright future ahead.

Also, it helps having an educational background (though to be honest, I've known individuals who don't have a degree that are better engineers than those with en educational background...).

[raylydiard]

thanks megasdkirby you care about my dream thanks buddy
and thanks for the help to me i will go to college to learn reading writing and rithmetic
and eletronics my uncle learned my about eleronics about 3 or 4 years ago and buyin broken segas and ps2 pcs and fixing and selling on
i have no gcses i need to learn fast thanks all you people

[evildragon]

I think you need to prove yourself worthy of repair services first though.

Let me quiz you. Sega Genesis model 1, early revisions with NMOS package CPU and external YM2612 synth. Sound has some loud buzz, and picture has light greyish bands moving up/down the picture.

What would the most common cause of this be? I know the answer because I can reproduce this easily.

[Iroquois Pliskin]

so much for building up your rep you've only posted 50 times and you've been at it a year

[raylydiard]

the fault is ussualy capacitor far as i know
as i dont know everything
i learn by my mistakes

[evildragon]

The most common and very important check, is the power supply.

When the old model Genesis is supplied with too little current or voltage, the YM2612 hums loudly, and the VDP gets starved and outputs a horrible image (though the console will play games, it may crash along the lines).

I will say though, a failed capacitor could also cause the stated problems, it's not the first thing to check though. Power Supply, never underestimate it.

And to be brute, your customers don't want their machines to be your mistakes.

[OldSchoolGamer]

Sorry, could not help myself, was at ATARI AGE FORUMS and guess what name started a thread? Yes, RickHarrisMaine (http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?showuser=6225)!!!!!
I know we already discovered he was real but reading that name over there and the only thing that popped into my head was this thread over here LOL!
I considered asking him about raylydiard but I just don't have it in me.....

[staxx]

Ok raylydiard, I fix consoles too. I'll fix your
Vectrex
Neo Geo AES
Sharp X68000
Laser Interactive
PC Engine Duo
PC Engine LT
Game and Watches complete with box/instructions
Gameboy SP Famicom Edition
Awia Boombox that had a built in Sega CD and Megadrive (it's Awia so you can't fix these)
Famicom Twin
Super Famicom TV (TV with a built in Super Famicom)
DS Lite Zelda Edition (has to be the Zelda edition, I can't fix the other models)

Send me all those and I'll fix them for free. Plus I'll send you my broken Sega Genesis, Game Gears, Sega Master Systems, Sega 32X, Sega Pico, Sega Saturn.
Sounds like a deal to me

[SnowKitty]

if he wasnt in the uk, id send him a dreamcast i have here with dead controller ports to see if hes honest or not.

that would be a very easy fix. it's a popped fuse on the controller port board. bridge it with wire and it will work again (its a little resistor looking thingy on the board that's labeled as F1) i can fix it for you if you pay postage on it. it'd be no problem cause ill be doing more soldering soon when i chip these other PS1s. also, unlike the guy that started this thread i do have feedback here and can be trusted :) or if you like i can even swap you a working board for your dead one.

HELP! Saturn won't read game disc

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everything was working, then yesterday my Saturn starts "reading disc format", then goes to "start application" button. Today "reading disc format" and that's it. NO MORE GAMES?!?!?
Is there a fix for the laser or is it something else? maybe the disc isn't spinning fast enough? spin motor going? The disc is tight on the spindle. Any insight on my problem? I'll buy another console, IF I HAVE TO, but would rather repair, IF I CAN. As it stands right now, I have nothing to lose by trying it myself.
================================================== ==============

If you can, please give advice as to if and how to repair this problem.
For the cost of shipping the unit to the UK and back, it is cheaper to purchase another on eBay.
CAN YOU HELP???

[staxx]

Hmmm you could replace the laser though you may want to change the POT setting on the laser, if I recall they are plastic white screws by the laser motor. Test the Saturn with the top off and something holding the CD in place (a lil tape) and to the lid sensor (a lil tape) and then turn the white screws until you get the game to read properly.
