Turbografx-16 issues!

Post by Rhonlore »

I just picked one up at a yard sale on the cheap, and this thing is -mint-.

Problem is, it wont display anything but a full screen of a single color. Im using a Keith Courage HuCard that appears to be in perfect working order.

Any help would be appreciated.

That happens to mine sometimes. I just clean the game. if that doesnt work i use an air duster on the cartridge slot.

An excellent suggestion... I'll have to find a duster.

I just picked one up a month ago and experienced the same thing. Clean the contacts on the Hu card and air dust the cart slot. If it still doesn't work than don't push the card in all the way. Splatterhouse doesn't see run for me if I have the game pushed in all the way strangely enough.

I've already cleaned the contacts on the HuCard. It's possible that the machine is defective too I guess... I'll pick up an air can tomorrow and see what I can accomplish!
