Pic shows a system card being used so nope.
Cool that it can plug straight into the ext bus, wonder what the game compatibility % ends up being tho

A friend of mine bought one of these units recently - I've recapped the MD & PCE packs.
Initially the unit had an LD stuck inside, after power cycling the player a few times it decided to eject of it's own accord... both paks worked OK during brief testing.
After recapping the paks I again briefly tested them - both OK.
I started to play through SNATCHER and after 10 mins the standby light started rapidly blinking between orange/green and video/audio goes off :/
I tried the MD pak and same thing happened after 10mins :/ :/
Any help to try and fix appreciated...

Thanks for the link, great to check that out :)
Telephone cards in English, Japanese anything goes eh ;)
But I think Teleca is probably best?

In the ealier days, before every company was making their own custom cards, anime magazines would make stickers to put over your plain boring cards and make them into Totoro or Nadia cards. Sorta like how they used to pack in inserts for your custom audio cassettes.[/quote]
Yeah I got some of those stickers, check it out :)

Back in the early 90s I collected Japanese telephone cards...
Like so much other stuff coming out of Japan I was fascinated by the way such pedestrian everyday objects could be so well designed and emblazoned with such amazing images... not just the anime and video game advertising that I was into but adverts for local events, conglomerates etc...
Hope you enjoy some of my collection, would love to see more if anyone has please?

Sorry should have been clear from start - sound was very very low and just a scratching sound, not No sound...
I just changed all the caps on the IFU board - now have good sound out of the RCA connections on the IFU :)
One problem left for me now - no CDR playback.
I haven't messed with the pots at all yet, and don't believe they have been.
I got the briefcase setup from a friend who is the king of car boot sales - he got the ifu, cdrom & a core grafx for an unbelievable £10, seller had it in a pile of laptops :p
The core grafx had a HK fitted PAL RF mod, I ripped that out and RGB modded it for him in exchange for the IFU & cdrom as it wouldnt play cdrs & sound was gone...
Thanks for all the help and advice!

Hello all,
I've got a CDROM2 briefcase that doesn't give sound from the CD - plays original discs fine but not CDRs.
I have recapped the CDROM2 unit as per the excellent guide here but still no sound from the CD, game effects are fine of course.
Any advice on how to repair would be apprciated - I looked in the IFU and there are loads of caps, could they be the cause of no cd audio?
Also how to adjust the pots without a scope so the drive can play CDRs?
Thanks for your time,
Paul
