mshaver76 Posted December 2, 2001 Share Posted December 2, 2001 Nothing happens. Something must be plugged into the cartridge port for the Jaguar to power on. If nothing is plugged in, the power LED won't even light up. [ 12-02-2001: Message edited by: mshaver76 ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted December 2, 2001 Share Posted December 2, 2001 If there is no game in the system, it won't power on at all. Mitch http://atari7800.atari.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian M Posted December 2, 2001 Share Posted December 2, 2001 Whenever I power up my Jaguar without a game, this is what happens. 1.) The LED light DOES turn on. 2.) You hear the Jaguar "roaring" sound. 3.) The Jaguar Logo scales into the screen. 4.) Finally, the screen turns RED with the Jaguar logo still on the screen. Atari Jess, if your does not do this, you may have a defective unit. The same thing happens if you don't insert a cart correctly. I just tried it with my console and these are the results.

But then why does nothing happen when i have NO cart in mine when i turn on the power (this happens on both my jag's) Are there different kinds of jag's? maybe in the later models they put the logo thing in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't, by chance, have a Jag CD plugged in, do you? Mitch http://atari7800.atari.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian M Posted December 2, 2001 Share Posted December 2, 2001 No, I don't own the CD. I assure you that this is what happens as I just tried it to be absolutely certain. I'm not sure how old this Jag is or when it was made as I got it as a bundle deal on ebay several months ago. I'm looking to unload my Jag collection. Check the marketplace forum for the URL to my Jag. I also put Rayman on ebay as well. I'll be systematically putting the rest of my games on ebay over the next few weeks. Just got my XBOX and no longer have a need for the Jag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari-Jess Posted December 2, 2001 Author Share Posted December 2, 2001 also to be certain here is what it says on the labels on my jag FCC ID: EBAJ8001 and the bar code number is m253023105 cant wait for that game to test it out for sure.

Lemmi Posted December 2, 2001 Share Posted December 2, 2001 FCC ID: EBAJ8001 Bar code on the one i have out is K146483565 Dont know what this means but there it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian M Posted December 2, 2001 Share Posted December 2, 2001 i have the following: FCC ID: EBAJ8001 ATARI CORPORATION MADE IN THE USA The serial # (barcode) is a sticker: K13C003462 There's no indication of the date of manufacture. It doesn't matter since this system is being sold anyway. If I have no takers on my ebay auction (comes with 2 NEW controllers, A/V cable and 2 games by the way!) I'll simply throw the Jag into the trash as I no longer have any use for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Mitch Posted December 2, 2001 Share Posted December 2, 2001 And mine is: FCC ID: EBAJ8001 and the Barcode (serial number) is: M249002905 Sounds like mine is the closest to Atari-Jess' Jag. Adrian, if nobody bids on your auction, let me know. I don't really need another Jag but I'd pay at least shipping rather than having it thrown out.

Adrian M Posted December 2, 2001 Share Posted December 2, 2001 It's not harsh, it's just that I have too many game systems as it is and I just don't have the time to post and repost ebay auctions for this stuff (I refuse to sell the entire collection as a complete bundle since I'll only get a fraction of the money I spent on it). Let's face it, used Jag systems don't exactly fetch big $$$ and to continually post things on ebay also costs time and money. It's a great system, but I have to systematically cut down on my collection of games and systems since I'll be moving into a new place real soon!

Adrian M Posted December 2, 2001 Share Posted December 2, 2001 Mitch, I'll keep your offer in mind if there are no takers. By the way, the link to my ebay auction for the system bundle is: Jag system with 2 new controllers, A/V comp cable, RF adapter, 2 games If anyone is looking for a complete copy of RAYMAN in EXCELLENT condition, the link is: Rayman-complete and in excellent cond!

Adrian M Posted December 2, 2001 Share Posted December 2, 2001 For the record, the fact that I am selling my Jag in no way indicates that I am no longer an Atari fan/collector. I have TONS of game systems and I need to trim down the number of games and consoles I have in my possession. I have a 2600 with over 150 games which I've had since I was a kid and I am not about to part with that. The Jag, on the other hand, was a system I bought a few months ago more out of curiosity than anything else. It's a good system, but I just don't have the same kind of attachment to it as I do with some of my other classic systems, so its an ideal candidate to sell. Make no mistake about it, I am still an Atari fan and will continue to take part in the community and these boards. 2600 rules!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari-Jess Posted December 2, 2001 Author Share Posted December 2, 2001 Since mitch's jag has a close barcode to mine, i can only assume for now that it works. So now i will await for my jag game to arrive... and Im also off to try to earn more money for that Jag CD im really trying to get. (which i will get cause i know i will) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mshaver76 Posted December 3, 2001 Share Posted December 3, 2001 Well, this is interesting. Some Jags will power up and some won't. Anyway, because I was bored a few months ago, I tried out every different boot condition. I think I got them all. Hopefully, I won't bore you too much. Of course, the Jag was properly hooked up in all scenarios. Nothing plugged in cartridge port Result: Jaguar doesn't power on at all Game plugged in Result: Jaguar starts game Game improperly plugged in Result: Jaguar powers on, but has a red screen Memory Track plugged in Result: Jaguar boots into Memory Track manager Jag CD plugged in, but Jag CD power supply isn't Result: Jaguar powers on, has Jaguar logo on screen with random VLM effect as background. There's also a picture of the back of the Jag CD with an arrow pointing to the power jack. Jag CD plugged in and properly hooked up Result: As above, but has a CD icon with a question mark on it instead of a picture of the back of the Jag CD. Jag CD plugged in, properly hooked up, and Memory Track plugged in Result: Same as above. Jag CD plugged in with no power, but game plugged in Jag CD's cartridge port Result: Game starts Jag CD plugged in with power (all remaining Jag CD conditions have the Jag CD properly hooked up), game is plugged into Jag CD Result: Same as above Jag CD plugged in with Audio CD in drive Result: Music plays Jag CD plugged in with Jag CD in drive Result: Game starts Jag CD plugged in with Jag CD in drive and Memory Track plugged in cartridge port Result: Same as above Jag CD plugged in with CD (Jag or Audio) in drive and game plugged in cartridge port Result: Cartridge game starts, CD is ignored Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
