Yes, I am new here and to building so please be gentle.
I have seen this topic posted before but I couldn't find an answer.
I installed a 138 in 1 PCB - all of the wiring is correct but I think the issue is that it is not on "free play" but I can't access the system settings if the buttons aren't working
When I power up and at the elf menu, I hold down the 1P button and it takes me to a screen that says "Press S1 to set up" and none of the buttons are responsive. The buttons are also unresponsive in the Game List screen but if I let it run until the Defender screen saver comes on and hold the 1P button it gives me the option to "Continue" or "Exit" - if I choose Continue, nothing happens, if I choose Exit I return back to the Game List screen and start all over again.
Please, any help would be greatly appreciated since this is only my second build and I don't know anyone with any knowledge on this. I'm sure it's something simple but in the meantime, I'm over here tearing my hair out.
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like it is not wired right.
The buttons should work on free play, so that has nothing to do w/ it.

I tried the manual but it doesn't read very clear.
All I need to know is how to set it to free play.

So did you press the S1 button on the PCB? If so what was the result?
