Have you guys had any luck with those CD FIX kits?

Have a few games that wont load any longer, have you guys used those repair kits from like RadioShack? If so, how did it work out for you?

I've used a "spin doctor" CD repair thing before. I was surprised, it actually helped. It isn't perfect, but it did help out with some scratched disks. I don't know how similar the ones at RS are though.

Edit: Skip doctor is what I was thinking of. The one I had wasn't motorized, I think it cost about $20.

They have 2 "SkipDoctor" ones. http://www.radioshack.com/product/index...kw=cd+player+cleaner&parentPage=search

And also some fluid type stuff.

The SkipDoctor definitely works. I use the online DVD rental service Intelliflix and have had a number of movies sent to me that were so scratched up they would not play. I run a number of these through the SkipDoctor and have always been able to get them to play. If they are very heavily scratched they may need to be treated several times.

Cool, glad to hear. Was going to stop on my way home and pick one up if I heard anything good.
