Rick Weis Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Hi everyone, i just got a USED DC game (gigawing) and it has some deep scratches on it! i have tried playing it and it freezes at the 3 level every time among other things (like graphic glitches) i got this game from mailorder (not returnng it) but was wondering is there anything that will fix this problem without it costing a lot? thanks for any help! Take care, Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 I posted a similar topic awhile back (on page 3 of this forum) & haven't had much luck. Post your results if YOU do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badbrad Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 They make cd resurfacers that supposedly work well, haven't tried it myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invader_dag Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 The best solution is a thing called a Game Dr. or a CD Dr.(All the Dr. devices are the same). You can get it at Electronics Boutique or Bestbuy, or Amazon.com i imagine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 My Game Dr has saved a few PS2 discs already, but Rick said his disc had "deep scratches", which may call for more drastic measures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mock Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 I just got some cheap crap from walmart that was less than $8 which is supposed to fix cd scratches...it's a fluid, not a rotary type fix...it worked on 6 of 8 DC games with bad bad scratches.

RJ Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 Mock- what is it called? "Spin" something or something"spin"? You'd help quite a few people here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mock Posted April 6, 2003 Share Posted April 6, 2003 The thingy from WalMart is made by Allsop and it's just called "CD-R Scratch Repair" it's in a blister pack and it has a cd case with lint free cloth in it, a small black bottle of fluid, says "disc grip included" and has a sticker that says "pays for itself in 1 easy repair" on it. It goes on like a wax, then it dries and makes a haze on the disk...you let it set for a while and harden then buff it off...worked on 6 of 8...I didn't even try it on a few others...going to go with the resurface option I think. Just yankin your chain in the other thread BTW... I think you were just jealous I started my own...LMAO. Mock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
