Just hangs on the intro screen. I reset the console, but that did no good. It has always taken about a minute or so to start, but now not at all. Any ideas? Thanks Q ---

There’s not really much troubleshooting you can do with a console. Either the disc is bad or the console is. ---

Thanks. I did finally get it to start, but not by pressing the start button itself, unless it really did take that long to start itself (re-loading saved game data? 20 minutes? I think I got frustrated and hit every damn button on the remote! :)🙂 Thanks Q
