Newsgroups: rec.audio,sci.electronics Subject: HELP!! CD player gone wild Message-ID: <1990Feb9.012038.13369@ug.cs.dal.ca> Date: 9 Feb 90 01:20:38 GMT Organization: Math, Stats & CS, Dalhousie University, Halifax, NS, Canada Lines: 16 I have a Mission CD player. I bought it second hand. Recently (as of Christmas) after recieving a couple CD's, the stupid thing started freaking out. It would be playing along merrily and then suddenly "rest".(it would stop playing and then pretend there was no CD in it) NOW it won't even play a CD!! When I load a cd in it looks at it and then pretneds nothing is there.. I have been told that the laser needs re-allignment. First question: is that true?? Second question do you know what the hell is wrong with it? and better yet how do you fix it? I don't have a dime to take it to get fixed, and I can't play any of the new disks I got. Please reply if you have a solution, because without a solution I have NO music( egads!!) thanks Tom
