Hello.
I was playing my 3DO, and all of a sudden it stopped working. The video game itself is turning on, but it presents me with the "insert a cd" screen.
I already opened the device, and lubricated the CD mechanism. I confirmed that the reader is working and moving, but the CD is not spinning. Looks like the drive motor is dead.
Is it common for just the drive motor to stop working? Is there an easy way to test it out before buying another one?
