Battery replacement will likely resolve the issues described above. There are no specific or special skills needed to complete this repair, and there is nothing unusual about this repair process.

Japanese Saturn? Here's how to set English after battery replacement...
Turn on the console without a disc inside.
If you get the date/time set screen, press the right direction until you have highlighted the bottom-right symbol then press A.
In the main system menu, select the icon that looks like a box with up-down arrow inside.
Next screen, choose bottom-right option.
In the next menu, select the item in the center (it’s the 2nd option)
Pick English (is not kanji) then select Exit.
