Sega Saturn no video...

Post by Genesis Knight »

I have a gray 1st gen Japanese Saturn, chipped + Action Replay 4-in-1. I've tried two different cables and a different console on the TV port to make sure it is the Saturn itself. I've tried it with and without the cartridge, battery, game disc. When I turn it on the lights all work normally and the cd drive spins normally - just no video. Any typical causes I could investigate?

Otherwise I'll need to start a WTB: Chipped Saturn thread. :lol:

Did you try any other games? Some games just turned out to be bad burns on mine. The same thing happens but its just black or sometimes the music will play or the logos will show then the picture goes out. As soon as I reburn a disc; everything is fine.

Well, I don't get the BIOS or splash screen or even the dash without the disc in or with confirmed working discs. I've had this sucker for about a year.

Oh I don't know then. I've only had mine for a week.
