howdy Ginza , sounds exactly like it needs a Laser Calibration Fix........the symptoms your having are classic to the Laser needs calibrating.

for 15mins work its worth a shot , a good tip is it may not work the 1st turn of the potentiometer but on the 2nd 3rd or 4th try you will get a disc to boot.

for me it booted 1st turn but i needed to adjust it 3 more times to get it more accurate , music in NFL Blitz started and stopped repeatedly but after more turns its now ok.

I got a dreamcast from ebay that acts exactly the same.. i figured that it works just fine if i put something weighty on the lid.
