Yeah I cleaned the lens ... I'll have to play with the pots when I get some free time.

they spin ... the middle gear was already replaced. The discs played fine on my duo. I was able to get them working by running a magic eraser over it ... Is there a way adjust the pots so that it would read minor scratched discs?

I have a pc-engine cdrom2 unit that will not read all my discs. Two in particular are Sprigan and Ys. They are originals. I'm not sure what I can do to fix this issue. Is it just adjust the pots and see what happens or will I need to get a new lens in there?

My TurboDuo has issues paying music during Lords of Thunder and the Gates of Thunder disk doesn't show the graphics properly. So any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

I'm considering picking up a cd rom to go with my pc engine and am wondering which one would be better ... the briefcase or the super cd rom unit that attaches to the back of the pc engine? I've heard that there have been problems with the regular cd rom unit but I haven't heard much about the super cd rom unit. Any infomation here would be greatly appreciated.

You're choices are the Tototek PCE Pro (32 meg) and the NEO Power PC-E (64 or 128 meg).  I'd avoid the former, as even though it's a tad cheaper, it's bulky, requires a parallel port, and can be a bit of a pain to get working with newer computers.

I'll have to get one when I get some extra money. I tried to get rid of the stuck pixel last night by rubbing but no luck. It's only one pixel in the top right corner so it's not that bad. I just happen to notice it every time I play my TE.

If you have a flash cart, you can try Rover's color cycling rom, but don't expect much.  These LCDs are ancient, so you have nearly zero chance of unsticking any pixels.

Where would I get a flash cart?

Love your reviews. Gate of thunder was one of your best.

Has anyone out there fixed a stuck pixel in their TE? I'm thinking about trying to gently rub the screen to see if that fixes the problem. I tried hooking up a dvd player through the tv tuner but couldn't get that working last night. I made a dvd that flashed multiple colors and I was going to try that and see if that would solve the problem. For some strange reason I just got a black screen on the TE instead of anything that would show on a tv. So either I was missing something yesterday while trying to hook up the TE to a dvd player, or my tv tuner is busted, or that's just not possible.

But anyways I'm just wondering if anyone has figured out a way to fix those stuck pixels in their TE?

Put me in for Legendary Axe Please.

I'm new here too ... pulled out my Duo about a month ago and it's the only system I've been playing, well besides my Turbo Express. I take that to work everyday for break
