All you have to do is blow on it. Blowing fixes most technical problems - tapes and cartridges that don't load, batteries that seem dead, CDs and DVDs that skip, connectors that don't connect, PCBs that act up, cooling fans that run slow - all sorted with a quick purse of the lips.

Blowing.....God's WD40.

I once read somewhere that hitting the tape softly against the table help unleash the stress (electric stress, I supposed) the tape had.

Because if the game didn't load it was because of the tape stress :lol:
