Can I fix a broken Sega Dreamcast?
Thought it was a laser pot adjustment, but had some issues around power supply and then the control port and fan.
Great project to work on and nice to see it up and running.

Sorry about the focus on some of the up close items, I'm swapping around my camera kit in the future, this mini camera is crap on any kind of macro work.
