Subject: Question about Vectrex and VecFlash

I bought a VecFlash recently and It would only go to a black screen when I would put it in. Richard told me how to fix it but it didn't work. Yesterday I put the VecFlash in again to give it another go and I got a screen with a bunch of garbled letters and lines. Now when I put in the game instead of the black screen it goes to Mine Storm. I was just wondering if something could have happend to the VecFlash or even worse my Vectrex.

Hello there. I recently bought a Vecflash too, but I have had no problems with it, and i'm very pleased with it. Is your problem happening with all the games you put on the flash or one in particular? If one in particular, email me the bin and I will try on my Vectrex.
Are you sure that you are successfully copying the bins from your PC to your Vecflash? Does the Vecflash software say you were successful?
The other possibility is bad contacts on your Vectrex cartridge port. DO your other cartridges work ok on your Vectrex?
regards
VectrexMad!
