So I just got a dreamcast off of ebay a few days ago and the system itself is in mint condition, or at least close to it, but every time I play a game after about 5-10 min into it, the game just freezes. The disc keeps spining and the DC sounds as it should. It freezes as if it just hit a nasty scratch on the disc, but out of the 3 games I've tried its done that. And the games I used pratically had no markings or scratches on it. Please Help, this is really bothering me.
Check if there is something overheating (inside or on the adapter).
The 'almost' mint condition might have blown a fuse or capacitor or something minor.
If you are brave enough, disassemble the console and look for anything out of place.
Good luck!
