Help!! Saturn not working properly.

[Herbster]

I have a Jap Saturn that only today has stopped working. All games, be it original or backup either don't load or load at a slow staggery pace.

Anyone else had this problem?

The Saturn is modded to run backups.

Sounds like the laser is dying you may need to increase its strength by turning the orange screw on the laser clockwise by 10-20 degrees.

Hi Quakester,

Thanks for the reply. I've got it to a point where the slightest touch clockwise and it won't read the disk but the drive starts to spin quickly. Then slightest touch anti-clockwise and it's back to staggering again.

Does this mean I need a new laser?

Cheers for any help.
