Random reset issue
« on: August 11, 2013, 01:55:38 PM »
I've been getting this sporadic random reset issue with hucards recently. CD's are fine, only the hucards. What happens is at any point the game do a kind of soft reset, meaning the screen just gets back to the title screen, no fuzziness, no garbage, no screen flash. It just resets BUT the music continues (no sound effects though) without any hiccup. Then when the "new" music starts playing the game runs as if nothing ever happened. Then I can play for any length of time since the issue is so rare... Has this ever happened to any of you? If so, your thoughts and/or suggestions? I've cleaned the contacts with Isopropyl alcohol but the system (lol the US Duo btw :P) is in top shape to begin with & I always made sure the humidity in my game room is okay so bad contacts are out of cause, besides all my other systems are fine so...

Admin it doc, it's a cancer right?

Try cleaning the HuCard connector as well.

Also has your Duo been recapped yet?

No recap yet & the connectors on the system have been cleaned to the best of my abilities without opening it but I think I'll open it up to check out the connector. Tips on cleaning it? If it's similar to the SMS's card connector it's gonna be hard to access  :-k

Use a HuCARD.  Wet with alcohol, and insert and remove several times.

Ouch, you should probably get on that soon, it might even be the reason why you're experiencing these resets.

Cleaned but since those resets are rare I'll wait a little & see but in the meantime I'll look at the task ahead & see if I'm capable of doing it. If not then I'll bug someone here  :mrgreen:

Stay tuned!
