Okay now that I think I've solved my problem of my Model 1 MegaDrive, now I have a new problem. My Mega CD won't turn on!

All I did was put a game into the system, unplugged Strider from my MD, and turned the system on.....

No picture. No sound. Nothing. Looked down at the console, and didn't even see the power light turn on when first turning on the power. I've checked all the connections, cleaned where my Model 2 MD plugs into the unit, cleaned the "cart" port on the Mega CD itself, and nothing. It's always worked perfectly fine until now. Now it just doesn't even want to power up. It's a Model 2 Mega CD by the way.

Hm... Perhaps I can send it somewhere? Maybe Old School Gamer?

I've have very little soldering skills, and even less electrical knowledge (Fuses, etc.).

Going thru OSG is a good option, however, be aware that you will be shipping to Canada, so adjust your postal expectations accordingly.

Maybe you know a friend or two that can solder?
