How does one go about getting a CD drive aligned?


You take it to the GeekSquad at Bestbuy.  Just tell them you have a "Service Plan".  ;-)


No, in one of the pictures on the side of the cd drive you can see 4 plastic screw type adjustemnts.  You use those.

Here are instructions for aligning the CD drive on a CD32.  Might work for the CDTV or you can probably find specs for the drive.

Back in my day, we didn\'t have water. We only had Oxygen and Hydrogen, and we\'d just have to shove them together.

Just wondering, how did you play floppy games without keyboard or mouse? (Or did you just boot them)


I'm sure Red will answer, but remembering from my CDTV days, the wireless controller you see pictured there functions just like a joystick.  So he probably just used that.  That aside, I thought it has a keyboard port right there in the front right corner? There's a little cover that flips up and down I believe. (I think you can use a wireless keyboard as well)
