Holy Mackerel! That is some procedure!
Speaking about boat anchors, I have the same Toshiba, and it reads and plays disks, but it is way too sensitive to errors on the disks. It gets hung up on disks that my inexpensive NAD sails through. Do you have any suggestions short of replacing the transport (which I can do)?
Thanks either way! You seem to know something about this machine!
