I thought you had some import machines? It was just the one game you wanted to play on a PAL machine...

Well my import machines won't play PAL optimised games, i've since gotten rid of my last remainign jp saturn they have all been sold over the last year, the one machine that was supposed to be the ultimate saturn i was having modified well I ended up being conned on that one.
The chap fitted a mod chip and region mod, then sold it to someone else, can't get in contact with him either! That machine would of played all games perfectly oh well, so now using a pal machine and an AR cart for import games!

Ah sorry bud, maybe play some Amiga to keep your mind off things till one arrives. Waiting is the killer but this time next month it will be all in the past. Sorry... doh.

sending threatening mail (if you mean threatening physical violence) is about the dumbest thing you can do as someone well versed in the art of conman-ship can easily use that against you if it goes to court.
Keep trying gently poking the laser, I'd written mine of until it suddenly came back to life.

Threatening as in legal action dude, i've got a paper trail that shows he's a con artist, and i've tried poking the laser quite a bit, maybe i'll give it one more go! does anyone know if the ribbon cables work either way? not sure it was the right way round when i plugged it in but didn't think that would make a difference

If you look at the bottom of the cd drive, underneath the drive motors there is a hole on the board, do you see a red dot behind those or a black one?
