Well, if you're from Penang, I would have asked you to go to Ace Electronics, Komtar, they can fix any consoles including classing ones like Neo Geo CD.

Is there any light on your Dreamcast? It could be your power board, you might probably fried it if you didn't use a stepdown transformer since your Dreamcast is the Japanese version using 110V.
QUOTE(colinwong89 @ Nov 22 2006, 05:47 PM) It's a Japanese Revision 1 console.  I opened the Dreamcast, but up to the top cover to check if there was anything odd (I didn't dare go further) but there was nothing. Tried twitching with the switch plugs if there were loose but still no startup.   |

Nah, nonsense, I know them personally, they can fix any consoles, if the repairs are expensive, they'll let you know. You can contact Ah Hin at 016-4815555 or his shop's number is 04-2623707. He many many Dreamcast spare parts including the optical lens, hope you can solve the problem for you.
 QUOTE(shareal @ Nov 22 2006, 02:25 AM) yup, they can fix it, and be prepared for a expansive/unbelievable amount they are charging~!  (just dont act too stupid and dont act too clever)...just my dua kupang  |

RM170? I think you probably misheard lah, the lens already RM150 only, how can the power board more expensive than the lens itself.
 Alternatively, you can buy the power board yourself from AI Trading Hong Kong, http://www.goldenshop.com.hk and they carry all spare parts for it. QUOTE(colinwong89 @ Nov 23 2006, 09:14 PM) Just gave Ah Hin a call. He said that the power board is most probably faulty, and quoted me RM170.
