RE: SEGA DREAMCAST FAULTY! ANY ADVICE

This is a known bug with the Dreamcast hardware design. I have successfully repaired the error with the following procedure:

1) Turn the unit upside-down, unscrew it and open her up.
2) Locate the power supply, this is where the power cord connector goes.
3) Remove it & place safely to one side.
4) clean the 6 pins that connect the power supply to the motherboard with WD40
5) ___GENTLY___ bend the pins towards the back of the unit slightly. ONLY A LITTLE!!!!!
6) Replace evrything & close up.

That should do it.
