Yo I'm new here! Thanks for approving me.
Well I recently bought myself a Pc-Engine duo boxed with 2 games, space harrier and xanadu.
anyways, nothing happens when I turn it on, ie no light on the console and nothing shown on the tv, not even a reaction
My screwdriver seems not to be able to open the pc-engine itself either, the bit is either to small or too large, it's just sliding.
I'm using a tranformator which I also use for my jap Sega Saturn. But what's weird is that I connect a multimeter to the end of the adapter cable and it shows nothing. Might it be the adapter which is broken and not the console itself? Or maybe I'm not even supposed to connect it to a transformator?
Also I noticed the cd-drivebay lid is kinda weird to open, first it opens just a bit, then you have to help it alittle for it to reach it top point, should it be like that?
also the hu-card lid is sorta loose. If you fiddle extra much you can actually remove it.
If I smell around I don't really smell any burned components.
The connector on the adapter is kinda unique and i couldn't really find any similar so I could put on my special adapter I have which I use for my Sharp Twin Famicom.
I could maybe create a speciall connector by cutting from the adapter cable and attaching noobishly to my special adapter.
I would like to listen to some expertise as you guys seem to really know what you're doing.
