this kinda reminds me of the dreamcast hard drive thread. it MIGHT work but nothing would support it, it would be really time consuming, and pointless.

use non acitone nail polish remover. permanent marker will come off with enough rubbing. try rubbing it with your finger for a while it should start coming off.

time for the critisism. that window on the disc lid makes me want to puke. clean it up a bit. unless it just looks like that because the picture is all wobbly

i could imagine using petrollium jelly too. that's what a lot of professional yo-yo books say to lube up your yo-yo so maybe it'll work. i have 3 gd-roms so i'll use some diffrent stuff on each and see (in my opinion) which one is quieter.

maybe they're not amber until you're over loading them and burning them out. maybe they're green. there are really low voltage leds. they're good for drive access lights because they're so sensitive.

3.3v 5v gnd gnd gnd 12v and parallel is where you have

Code: Select all

gnd--|--|--|
     L  L  L
     E  E  E
     D  D  D
pos--|--|--|
so that if that first led burns out the others are still getting the voltage
