I broke my Minidisc player!!

Hi!

I happen to have dropped my minidisc player and it now gives me an error message, but everything seems to be working except playing the actual discs. It would seem that something has disconnected or has moved as it tries to read the discs, then it gives me the error. Sony repair people have said that it could cost around £80 to fix it but I was wondering if anyone knows where I could get it repaired cheaper?

Thanks

    I dont know if this will help but I had a problem with my Sharp minidisk (only playing) and found advice on a chat forum which suggested I try twisting it vigorously clockwise and anticlockwise (if that makes sense) I did it a couple of times and it worked and has ever since.
    I was willing to take a chance before buying a new one. You could try it or look for a chat forum for your particular model and quote the error message.

    hope it helps
