N64 randomly resetting? Try this first.
<p>Some time ago my Nintendo 64 started resetting itself without any apparent rhyme or reason. After ruling out the power supply as the source of the problem I went to Google to seek a solution, finding it was a surprisingly uncommon issue (a testament to Nintendo’s consistently excellent build quality). What I did find, however, was that most of the time the problem was caused by loose or oxidized internal connectors. So, armed with my trusty 4.5 mm Gamebit and <a href="https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Nintendo+64+Bottom+Cover+Disassembly/1611" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">this handy iFixit guide</a>, I cracked open my N64 and took it apart piece by piece. Finding absolutely nothing amiss inside I slowly and sadly put the console back together, fully expecting that the issue was there to stay and that this icon of my youth could now only be used as an offering to the spirits of Iwata and Yokoi. In a moment of final desperation before shelving the system forever, I plugged in the power supply, popped in Ocarina of Time, and…everything worked fine. I had fixed nothing but the console had stopped randomly resetting.</p>
