When I was playing FFVII last fall, I noticed that the animated scenes were skipping, but I just figured the unit was overheating slightly. Now, after having my PSX on for 30 minutes, it starts to skip quite bad, even locking up on level loads when it misses tracks. The interesting thing is that if I turn it upside down, it starts to work just fine again. It's not overheating, I keep it well-ventilated. Any ideas what's wrong, what I need to do to get it fixed, and what it will cost me? Thanks, Matt
