Not really a solution, but may help someone... 4YO grandson had changed switch on back of TV to black & white! ( needless to say I didn't know there was such a switch ) Thanks again, Narnie

what you could do is if you know how to use a soldering iron is to strip the wires expose the copper and match the colours of the insulation and solder the wires back together but to be honest you you dont know how to solder you might aswell get a new cable

look on ebay

since this is a game boy advance with cartridge games blow into the cartridge it should play.

wwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaattttttttttttttttttttttt?????

need baderies

look on the commputer

because ps3s have higher graphic needs

either a new lazer or daugher board call a company caalled innex they have some hope this was helpful

the LEDs that light the screen may be going bad. this could be natural aging or a voltage spike to the LEDs. make sure your using the right power supply (if you have one) or the right batteries

Laser is bad in the drive which is why it will recognize bluerays but not games. Laser requires different strengths to read certain discs and if the laser is weak in any way then it won't be able to read certain discs. You can get new lasers on Ebay or even replace the whole drive which you can get on Ebay as well.

first you have to try to turn off the unit and disconnect all connections.. just leave the unit turn off for an hour (no power). and reinstall again the unit, then switch it ON...

Let me know.

That sounds bad. I'd check to see if you are within warranty coverage. Sometimes tech support will help you a bit even if you are not.

Most likely, the unit was dropped or else exposed to moisture. If it was dropped, a printed circuit board or similar may have cracked. That's sometimes repairable, but a difficult thing to do even for an expert with good equipment.

On the other hand, possibly a cable or connector inside, particularly one connected to the screen has come a bit loose from being dropped. You might be able to fix that by taking the unit apart (being careful to remember how things fit) and re-seating all the connectors, i.e. disconnect each one and then push it back into place firmly, though not really forcefully. The trouble is that in order to take the unit apart, there will likely be a screw under a label or something similar that is going to break your warranty by opening it. So you probably don't want to do this if the unit is in warranty.

Another possibility is that the unit was exposed to moisture. If so, you can try what I said in the last paragraph but also look for water stains or similar. If you find any, they sometimes leave a residue behind that can cause a short. Sometimes, even a bit of water can last for a long time if trapped under a part or connector. You can clean small water stains with some isopropyl alcohol on a Q-tip. If you think there might still be moisture in the unit, try blowing hard at it while it is open from different angles. You might also try blowing a hair dryer at it and through it for awhile. If it becomes too hot to touch, you have the hair dryer too close.

Warranty repair is by far your best choice. The other techniques may work but unless you specifically spot the problem inside you may not be able to correctly diagnose it and fix it.

Likely your ps3 operating system is corrupted .try go to youtube type your issue .some video might asst u .

the ps2 will but ask your mom or dad to help fix the problem ok?

try calling nintendo

try deleteing game firmware once online it will re download firmware v130 this game was hacked so try re downloading it my psn is manhunter707 so look me up

the ac adapter doesnt charge the batterys only runs it on mains you dont have to remove them but you should, they leak if not used or been in for a long time corrodes the pins and renders anything allmost useless to run on batterys when you put them back in

since it's secondhand, you may want to go onto Ebay or check in with your local Game Stop and see about getting a replacement battery.

make sure that your ps3 doesn't have anything blocking the vent, and that it's clean and dust free. if you have a CD cleaner (looks like a CD with small brushes on the opposite side) you can throw that in there to clean off your lens, it shouldn't take but a second.

i think u should buy another charger or an other battery for your gameboy
