Neo Geo 4-Slot problem
« on: February 19, 2008, 01:14:29 pm »
I have a 4-slot, and slots 1 and 2 are not working at all, yet 3 and 4 work fine.  any ideas of how or if this problem could be fixed?

Starting with the most basic of trouble shooting.... try cleaning the contacts for slots 1 and 2. You can typically clean the contacts with a pencil eraser. Just make sure you get all of the left over eraser shavings out of the slot.

4 slots are notoreous for having one or two slots not working. So it may not be something readily easy to fix.
