3DO Scratching Discs. Need Help!


Recommended Posts


Hey everyone,

So I just got a 3DO FZ-10 from Ebay and it works great however, the discs are getting scratched as the games are spinning. You can hear it and the discs show a light circular mark left by one of the pegs just inside the cd tray.

Any ideas how to fix this like raising the spindle maybe? I know first thought would be just file the peg(s) down, but I'm looking for other ideas that doesn't harm the system.

Thanks.

You need to investigate why the CD is lower than it should been. Maybe push down the drive assembly to see if it bounces back, maybe the spindle is at an angle? I only have FZ-1 unit.

Remove the top cover, look at the CD at level then spin the disk and see how it behaves.

I do have a Slim PS2 that scratches disks, and this one's spindle is crooked.
