Advice On Sega Saturn

[unleashedmaniac]

I just need some adivce on my saturn. I brought it a couple of months back and it wouldn't work so i thought just put it away. I've now come back to it to get it working. I'll try and explain it the best i can.

As i insert the disc (Sega Rally) the layout loads up and it comes up checking disc format but then the text disappears and i am left with the menu, from guessing i seem to think this is the cd function as play/pause and repeat buttons are on the menu. Any advice on how to get the saturn working with games will be much appreciated.

Jimmy.

Is the system PAL/Japanese?
Is Sega Rally the only game disc you have?
Is it badly scratched or damaged in any way?
Is it the correct region?
Will the system play a music CD?

The system is PAL
I have Sega Rally and Bomberman both games do not work
Sega rally is not really scratched
It's the correct region
Saturn will not play music cds

It seems to be the actual system itself.

Yeah, sounds like a problem with the CD-ROM drive most likely.

Only time I've seen this problem is when I switched a CD unit from one Saturn to another, and they were slightly different types.

Where did you get it?

Ebay, i didn't expect it to work really. I mean i paid ?10 for it, that included the console, steering wheels, two controllers and one game.
