Greetings!!!! This is a problem I have experiencing with my Supercard. At 9 of 10 times, after I go to GBA mode, even with or without inserting my CF, the screen goes blank. Any suggestions of the nature of the problem?

Thanks in advance!

That happened to me before- I just reformatted my CF Card, and that fixed the problem.

I tried that, more than once, and nothing happened!    Also as I have stated in my first post, the same problem occures even if I don't have the CF card inserted

That happened to me as well. I think it's a loose solder in the SC. I find the best way to get it to work is by blowing into the cartridge, just like we all did back in the NES days.

LOL that brings back memories, I had forgot about that :wink:

I 've tried that, I 've even washed the bloody thing with a handkerchief! Everything from formating the cf to clean the cf and the Supercard doesnt work. I am stating to think my Supercard is damaged somehow although I didnt do anything to it- it's been on my Ds's  GBA slot for almost a year!

The following is a quote from the Nintendo Customer Service page on NES cartriges:

Do not blow into your Game Paks or systems. The moisture in your breath can corrode and contaminate the pin connectors.

I wouldn't suggest doing that with a Supercard either.

Well, with my Supercard that doesnt work, but it worked on the NES/SNES/N64 cartridges . Anyway, what should I do with my Supercard? The other GBA cartridges I have work normally.
