CD32 Help

Hello there my fellow forum chummies I am (yet again) in need of your help


I have been for a long while collecting components here and there for a CD32.. however I have managed to find myself at an impass.

I have a

1. Motherboard (working - powers up)
2. Optical Drive (known as working)
3. Button / led and stero volumn / connection pannel
4. Bottom plastics
5. Top plastics.

Okay, so all is together and she powers up, - but no drive action. on closer inspection I think I am missing the CDROM top pressure plate and I will be honest I think I am missing some bits for the door mechanism (to let the machine know if its open / closed).

1. Has anyone got pictures of an exploded (dismanteld) CD32 with all the components?
2. Has anyone got drawings / scanned manuals or info ?
3. Has anyone got spare bits that can help or know where I can get them???

Please please please help as I want this for my dughter to play her "brian the lion & Alfred Chicken" of all things...

Me.... I just want it for some Friday night / Curry night fun with some speedball 2/ sensi soccer / alien breed(s) and bit of wing-commander =)


thanks for reading.

The CD32 door should have a little clip on the side to the front which is viewable on outside.to set off the drive when its closed.

CD32 service manual here.go into "hardware" drawer-

@Jack

Cheers for those - ahhh it would seem that I dont have that CD drive clip either then...

Hmmm it would also seem I am missing a screw.... but I am sure some people already knew that =)


anyone got a pic of the inside of the top lid ?
