[ToyMachine78]

Dudes, mens, guys.... My Dracula X is freezing up at the same point every time. I've cleaned it normally, and with disk repair solution. Still bullshit... Grrrr... First time its done this. Any idears?

Is there a visible mark on the disc?

Might wanna try the toothpaste method if all else fails...

No not really. Nothing I would consider worse than superficial. Actually, it looked better before I cleaned it with the repair solution. I guess that's similar to toothpaste.

What other CD games do you have to test out? Hopefully it isn't a memory or ADPCM audio issue.

I've played several other CD games tonight no prob.... Gradius II, Ai Cho Aniki, Psychic Storm, Star Parodier..... They all played fine.

Make sure to check the label side of the disc. Most CDs are actually largely unprotected from the top. At least on bottom there's a layer of plastic, but the top is usually protected only by some glue and the ink. I had to pass on a really cheap copy of SamSho IV on Saturn because I could tell that a nick on the label side went all the way through to data layer.

Well popped in X again tonight and it played fine. Whew!!!!!   The universe is in harmony again.

Pretty strange though. The only thing I can figure is that the system card wasn't properly seated.
