Title: Weird problem with FDS
Post by: boye on April 03, 2019, 07:08:18 am
I have a problem with the FDS where when I plug the RAM adapter into the FDS, I lose the signal. This only happens sporadically.
Thanks for any help!  :)

You need to describe the problem more. What do you mean loose the signal? What happens exactly and when?

By losing the signal, for a lack of a better term, the Famicom shuts off until the Ram Adapter plug is unplugged, then, the Famicom resets like nothing happened.

Please unscrew your RAM adapter and check for power rail damages (broken cables, chips, PCB board etc.)

Nothing appears to be damaged on my RAM adapter.
