I am back with another Neo Geo CD problem.
Unfortunately my Neo Geo CD Top loader seems to have problem with the CD Drive.
I actually send it to a friend to recap it for preventive reasons. He recieved the mahcine that left form my hands with a working CD drive.
The mahcine arrived on my friend's hands but he reports that:
a. The mahcine turns on, shows the boot screen.
b. The CD spins for a while doing a mechanical sound but then stops and of course it would not read any CDs, neither Neo CDs or audio CDs.
c. This was not a problem before I send it so I can imagine that some kind of damage was done during the transport.
Here is the video where you can see all those that I am describing:
http://youtu.be/LBHTifw0xBc - Please turn the volume on a little higher to listen to the drive spinning sound.
My friend who is good at hardware have tried almost every method described on the above videos to bring the CD in working condition. Nothing of the stuff described on the videos above was the case. Please take an extra second to watch.

Can you first of all see the video with the symptoms and give me some advice?
Can you suggest any possible places to buy replacement kit for Neo Geo CD TOP loader?
Can you advise me what else can be done for the problem to be investigated and fixed?
Thanks a lot for your help. It is VERY much appreciated.
