BACK to the 32x problems.

Well curiousity finally got the hold of me so I removed the 32x and tried the game and got no buzzing. I also turned the volume on the speaker system as loud as it would go, and the sound wasnt coming from there which means its the 32x itself (which I confirmed several times). Now its not like a realy buzzing like you get from an electronic toothbrush. More of a quiet, high pitched whine. I ask you again, IS THIS NORMAL. Id really hate to have to get rid of it considering how it cleans up the static and bleeding of colors on regular genesis games. I also cleaned the connections but it appears to be coming from within

.

Thanks,

Did your 32X come with the shielding that goes into the cart slot . If memory serves, you put the shield into the Mega-drive cart slot and then insert the 32X.

I don't believe I ever used it on my model 2 MD. But maybe you may need it. If indeed there is such a shielding and I'm not just manufacturing a memory from 12 years ago.

Yes but its only used for grounding in the original Genesis and is completely unecessary in the MD2. I dont know, it works fine and does everything it should except not make a whiny buzzy noise. Its not a big deal as lone as its not something thats really all that dangerous.

To be honest, the buzzing noise would bug the hell out of me. Have you got any way of testing another 32X or MD console? Or maybe another set of cables?

ive tried other cables but as I stated before its not coming from the speakers or TV static. Its coming directly from the system. It does bug me some on games like DooM it runes the mood but on loud games like Virtua Racing its fine. But it makes a louder noise too on Doom for some reason.
