Odyssey Questions

[coreys429]

I have an Odyssey 1 and an Odyssey 2. First what kind of 9v power cord should I get. I got a price for almost $19 bucks at Radio shack for one. They never saw something like that before...lol Secondly, my Odyssey 2 isn't showing the picture. The screen is scrambled at the moment, I tried cleaning it but still nothing. What can I do to fix this?

Never buy a power supply at Radio Shack unless you also like flushing your money down the toilet.

Try www.jameco.com instead.

As long as the Voltage and polarization are correct and the mA rating is high enough any adaptor should work. I don't have an Odyssey2 any more but I'm sure there are plenty of people on here that can tell you the exact specs you'd need. In fact, I think there was a thread on here listing the specs for different systems power supplies but I don't remember how thorough it was.

Thanks for the power adapter site for that. Though I have one for Odyssey 2, I just need help with the picture.:o

I found out the picture problem. I have no RF shield on the system. Looks like someone forgot to put back on. After that the system turns on.
