Sorry I missed that you cleaned it. Did you try it on another NES console? Maybe your console could use a replacement connector. Not exactly since I don't have another one. I have tried several other games on the NES though and they all play fine so I assumed that my NES was fine and that this is a...

As I said in my post "I have cleaned the Cabal cart thoroughly." Is there anything else that can produce this behavior? The lines are at completely equally spaced intervals and don't jump or move at all.

Any way to troubleshoot a cart with vertical lines?

Hi To further my NES collection, I picked up Cabal recently. Unfortunately, when I put it in my NES it displays pretty wide vertical lines are regular intervals across the entire game. This does not effect any of other NES games, so I doubt that it has anything to do with the NES and I have cleaned ...

Um...so bottom line is that I can't complete my file on the wiki?

Is there nowhere that I can post a tutorial with pictures?

My time is getting away from me unfortunately but I want to get this up since I spent a lot of time creating it. Could I go back to your offer of assistance and ask you to help me convert this to the wiki format? If so, how do I send you my file?

Thanks for the information. Can this programmer also erase chips that already have data? Someone told me that I should get that capability since its cheaper to buy used chips.

I assume that either the GQ-3X or the GQ-4X would fit my needs? Let me know if I'm wrong.

Thanks!

USB Programmer

I'm trying to learn how to program chips for NES Repro Paks but all of the ones that I see people recommend plug into the parallel port. Unfortunately my computer doesn't have a parallel port. Does anyone know of one that plugs into a USB port?

Please let me know.

I don't suppose that there's some easy way to do the conversion is there? I have no idea how anything regarding wikis work.

Labels?

Does anyone here know how to make high quality sticker-type labels like nesreproductions or gamereproductions do? I'm wondering what kind of printer, software, and sticky paper that you would buy to do this? Any help/info would be appreciated.

New Documents - how to upload

I'm developing a tutorial on how to install a battery holder on an NES cart so that one can easily swap out batteries when they run out. I was thinking that this website would be the perfect place to post such information. However, I see no submission guidelines on the main pages. Is there such a do...
