not sure but those leaky caps could be the problem.  Mmm  I should take my CD32 out for a test run.
If your need your caps replaced I can to that type of work if needed.

Thanks Rich, it seems you were right about the caps.

I've replaced'em and it seems everything is back to normality with the CD32.

However i do have two questions, i've noticed after a couple of hours the capacitors i've installed are a bit inflated... I don't know if this could be normal due material dilatation.

If not, what is going wrong here? Maybe the PSU is giving a wrong power output that could damage these caps?

Or as long as i'm using a NTSC CD drive, on a PAL console could it harm the components?

I can't see any difference between PAL and NTSC drives aside a couple of rubber pieces, red for PAL version and blue for NTSC.

I've replaced the disc drive since the PAL one is refusing to read CD-R's, could i correct this problem or is the drive just wasted?
