Did you transfer over the black screw on the left hand side of the laser? I forgot to do that once and it read CDs but not DVDs until I moved it over.

@ I did transfer it over but could it be that maybe that’s not adjusted correctly?

I believe you can hook it up to a computer. But the microscope allows you to record video to a microSD card. Though recently I've had issues of videos actually recording to it (I've had entire videos go missing or only partly recorded) which is problematic as a content creator lol. I'm gonna try other solutions. It could possibly be my memory card too. I haven't swapped it yet to see.

You talking about me wanting to recycle the cord? I don't like to be wasteful lol.

Thanks for the tip! Do you just use dish soap?

@@titanrepairs Yes Dawn.

@@SwishaMane420 I did. It's in the video. It happened quick. 23:49

Thanks for the sub! Yeah. I try not to mess with the alignment. If it works I leave it be lol. It can be quite temperamental. Thanks for the insight!

I'm glad the video helped you and you got everything back together!

Any particular reason you wouldn't?

No. No it is not lol. It was like 15 bucks. Works fine for dust but definitely met its match with the spider webs.

Unfortunately not yet. I'm working on things in the background to change that.

🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮

They are just an assortment of thicknesses I bought as a kit on Amazon a while back for another project. Sorry I didn't pay attention to what sizes they were. I just grabbed them and matched up the thickness. The brand of the ones I used are OwlTree and the thicknesses are .5-2mm.

I wanted to but fell behind on shooting and editing lol. Better late than never I guess!

Yeah.... I'm his wife and I'm horrified that these things come into our home 😂

At least it wasn't roaches 🙂

Ooops. My bad. Don't worry. The ringing in your ears should subside in 24 hours 😂 Seriously. But not gonna lie. Dead spiders creep me out. Like the way the legs curl in when they're dead. Weird.... I know right? I'll get a pristine console in with all sorts of issues. In a basement for 20 years and reeks of mold? Works fine lol. I'm about to record one where the disc drive is glued shut. The system works fine otherwise. Boots games just fine lol.

Interesting. So same theory I'm doing with the paper wipes then it seems.

Thank you! I appreciate the kind words ☺️ I say give it a try! At least if you're repainting anyway. The vinegar will likely dull the shiny surface on the top shielding. I've never tried electrolysis but I've seen antique restorers use it to remove rust and paint so I'd imagine it'd work here too. I grind now because I bought those wheels for an unrelated home project and could only get them in like a 200 pack so I'm trying to get rid of them hahahaha. I may move on when I run out of these. It's very messy which is why I do it outside.

@titanrepairs You are doing a great job getting rid of them all so far, I might get them as well haha. Thanks!

@@ED_62 When the disc drive magnet wears out it'll make a grinding noise when it's spinning the disc, usually blue discs. In this video it caused the disc read error. Using flex seal adds friction back to the disc drive magnet to help it grip the disc again ☺️

@ i currently have an odd issue with my ps2 fat, it won’t read DVDs at all at first but if I give it a while to spin the DVD disc it’ll stop for like a minute or two and then start to spin and read the disc but will read ps1 and blue ps2 games flawlessly, could this magnet fix solve my problem? I’ve tried everything else I could think of to fix the issue. It sounds like the disc drive is just starting and stopping honestly, sometimes they’re clicking as well

Thank you 😊

Always a valid solution! 😃

Agreed! These picks I got from Harbor Freight for a few bucks. They get the job done 😊

That's actually not a bad idea. They're cheap picks so I can pick up another set to modify and give it a try!

Agreed. I'm at 100% success right now lol. Sometimes they sell them on their lots just because they're excessively dirty. Editing one video now where the system was full of dead spiders. Aside from that it worked lol. But otherwise it's usually something dumb like a bad laser or burst caps or a stuck disc drive.

Yeah I do remember it being a pain to work with them. Hence the poor electrical tape job 🤣

Hey! I have actually never used the HDMI cable. I just use the built in screen when I'm using it and recording to the SD card. Check the settings. I remember it had some weird options set by default. As far as I know, it should be able to do both simultaneously. But I'm not 100 sure on that.

@titanrepairs Thanks ✌️

Hey there! This video is so old I had to rewatch it to see what I did to answer your question (also cringed at my production quality back then lol). What I did was fold them in opposing directions and wrapped them in electrical tape. It'll keep them apart. But what I would do now is wrap each individual wire in electrical tape and then wrap both of them together in electrical tape. You can also use heat shrink if you're feeling fancy :)

Thank you 😊

Hi! Not yet. I'm cooking some things in the oven at the moment. I'll make announcements as things are ready :)

It certainly sounds like a steal. Thanks for sharing your insight!

@titanrepairs no problem

Bingo!

Can someone tell me the recommended size caps and how many? I’d like to have these on hand for when my scph-30000 goes!

Anything in particular that makes it better? I'm genuinely curious since I'll eventually need to upgrade to one that records in 4k 🙂

​​​@@titanrepairs I bought this today on eBay at special offer for £148 (all in) Its 4k - high detail, larger base, well built 10.1 inch IPS screen, High zoom, Ring light, filters/diffusers, various modes: compare, ruler, connecting to multi external screens - Bargain.

@@titanrepairs if you google it, that might be your best option.

同意。 2000年代，由於電容器瘟疫，故障率很高。當時很多遊戲機都受到了影響。電容器維修是我對這個時代的遊戲機所做的最重要的維修。另外我正在使用翻譯器，所以希望谷歌沒有屠宰它:) Agreed. There was high failure rate in the 2000s due to the capacitor plague. A lot of consoles at the time were affected. Capacitor repairs are the top repair I do of consoles of this era. Also I'm using a translator so hopefully Google didn't butcher it :)

I know the exact smell you're talking about. Experienced it many times lol.

But weirdly they made the power supplies for the OG Xbox and there never seem to be issues with them 🤔

That's true for many electronic device made in that era due to the crap cap plague.

Absolutely not. A sledgehammer is always an appropriate tool!
