Merovingio73 Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 I recently purchased a HARMONY cartridge. I installed the Roms on the SDHC, but when I plug in, the screen stays black and flickering I did updated the bios .ntsc Same problem. Regular games work I think the cartridge has a problem itself. How can I replace it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

root42 Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Did you try re-flashing the eeloader? I had the cart fluke out on me once and re-flashing the loader fixed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merovingio73 Posted July 2, 2019 Author Share Posted July 2, 2019 Thank you for helping. I did format and reinstall the bios and eeloader. Now the cartridge works ( I don't know why it does this time after several attempts doing the exact same thing ) but anyways..... it works now. My only concer now is that it is very hard to read the rom lines. I can't read the name of the games, I have to guess or look at the TV from far away Every name is split in horizontal lines instead of being a single line. My TV is NTSC , the bios I uploaded is the . ntsc. The games look fine, but the menu is almost unreadable. Any suggestion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I suppose you are using a modern TV and not a CRT, correct? Then the effect depends on how your TV handles the unusual signal coming from the 2600. Especially interlaced displays, like the Harmony menu (or e.g. Stellar Track and Dark Mage), are giving many modern TV problems to display well. Try your TV's settings, maybe you can find a setting which improves the display. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
root42 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I noticed that the latest BIOS release is very unreadable. The 1.0.5 release in the Harmony software distribution is much better readable. But yeah, the interlacing effect doesn’t work very well on LCD TVs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stephen Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Try changing the Color/B&W switch. It seems for me in 1.06, that in B&W the text colour cycles. Then again - I am using an old CRT TV from 1977, manual tuning knobs so I have no idea what more modern displays look like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
