Dc Crashing A Lot.. Whats Wrong?

[Bugrom1076]

My DC (which I bought used on ebay) is crashing a lot for some reason. It happens in Skies of Arcadia (which sucks when I cant save) and in Street Fighter 3 Double Impact.

 

I'll be playing happily and suddenly the DC resets itself, sometimes repeatedly, sometimes the screen goes blank and the DC wont reset itself. Turning it off and waiting 10 minutes or so seems to fix it.

 

This has happened several times in the space of an hour yesterday, and happened twice like three weeks ago. Before that, no problem. I've owend the DC now for about a month and a half.

 

Whats wrong with it? It's not the games, they are brand-new retail games or brand-new burned games.

It could be the system it self with the power supply crapping out.

This is a common problem. Here's a way to fix it.

Your gd-rom needs alignment and it's dirty, check the guide on the pinned topics.

It's resetting, has nothing to do with the GD-Rom.

Well i was having that problem to, but what i did was take it back to gamestop for another one. I think the internal battery is dieing. Buy a new one at Lik-sang.com
