Atari Flashback 9 FIRMWARE for adding games to SD card

Also just to verify this update is for the FB9 (HDMI version), if so maybe tried a different SD card, I have a Sandisk brand card.

 

Correct. FB9 Gold. I've tried 3 different SD cards, all different manufacturers. one 8 GB and two 16 GB.

once you do the firmware update it will try to update again in a loop, just shut down system go into the SD card and remove the atari_update.img file and create a game folder, that's where you will put all the games in.

Once you reboot the SD card should be active.

 

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried putting in the SD card I had ready with the Game folder and I still got the black screen with the Error message.

Thank you for the reply. I had actually come across this video once before, but I gave it another viewing at your suggestion. I did find it helpful because it at least confirmed that I had completed the same original steps as he did. It sounds like his machine acted the same way initially, but then rebooted to the atGames screen. My machine just never takes this next step. It just starts over again. I did once, briefly, see a literal flash of the atGames symbol across the screen, but then it was back to before. I am not super experienced, so it is possible I have loaded the files wrong or something.

 

Did you ever figure this out? I'm having the exact same problem with mine. I emailed At Games over 2 weeks ago but they never replied.
