Juicyracoon Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 So I just got a game drive but when I started up my jaguar, the retro hq logo popped up but under it it said menu error or something like that. Now every time a start it up it’s just a grey screen with the jaguar logo also in grey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SainT Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Do any other carts boot? I'm not familiar with a grey screen with Jaguar logo. It's normally red if there's an issue? The menu error message means there was some issue verifying the menu code. This can be dirty contacts on the cart edge on console edge connector.

Juicyracoon Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 Unfortunately the other cart I got was smashed in the mail, so I don’t have a way to test the console. The red screen popped up twice after the initial retro hq logo. Now it’s the same screen just all grey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SainT Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 That should be a red screen, I'm not sure why you don't have colour? But that is a sign of bad contact between the cartridge edge and the console cartridge connector. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'd say its a h/w glitch on the console. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerosquare Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Or a PAL console on a TV that only supports NTSC (or the opposite). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
