Saturn Boot issues. HELP!

Post by adzza »

Hi all,

Just a quick run down. Bought this at a garage sale for $10 so i don't expect anything from it, but here is the issue.

Saturn seems to boot up ok, asks for time and date, etc and then loads to menu.

If I have a game in, when i turn it on, it makes this ziiiip zoop, ziiip, zoop, ziiip zoop noise. I have pulled it apart and wathed it try to rnu a game. The laser is moving up and down trying to find a track or something.

The cd drive then winds down and comes to a stop as it enters the menu, and it sees it as an audio cd from what I can tell.

This is NOT a modded Saturn.

What I have tried:

1. Adjusting the laser via orange screw....no good.
2. Trying the same game in a brand new saturn I bought for collection purposes, works fine.

So its not the game, its obviously the saturn. Can the laser be aligned or something? It seems thats whats needed. I dont want to use my new saturn either. Id like to fix this one.

Any help would be great! Cheers.
