All my favorite games are on Amiga I’d really like to watch this.

Thanks for the reply mate.
Yes cart works but tried without as both systems have buikt in games anyway. Am so close to tuning it in on my telly but i just keep getting the same as on my brothers tv. Its doing my sweed in propper!!!! I can’t understand why it wont work with av lead either. Have trailed net for tips and tried it all the only thing left now is to buy a old s***y tv and hope for the best ( although the wife is screwing enough already at the money i’ve spent!!)
if that don’t work then i will just buy an x-box and forget that they ever existed!

Hey Eddy,
I feel for you mate, and your problem could be a few things, but most likely:
1. Have you got a cart inserted? And does it work OK? i.e. tested on a SMS/TV setup that works. If you have a cleaned cart in and still can’t get the SMS to work follow my article on tuning old consoles on new TVs.

i can’t tune in my sms1 or sms2 in to my tv. I have tryed using rf lead in to tv, via video player and have even brought a av lead and that does’nt work either. The nearest i can get is on my brothers tv and even the its just a black screen with a grey linr moving from top to bottom (when i turn the console off the screen turns back to fuzzy grey so the deffo work). please help or soon i will be taking a hammer to the pair of the little F**********s!!!!!!!
