I have the TG-16 with the cd add-on. my 2.0 card works fine. when i try to use the super card nothing at all happens, like as if i turn on the system without a game in it. a blank screen.

is the card broken? Looks to be in good shape. any ideas??

Dumb question but is the card the US version or the Japanese version? Japanese HuCards won't work in a US T16 without modification.

Has your system 3.0 Card ever worked before? Or did it just recently stop working. I happen to have a Turbo Duo myself (not a turbo 16 with CD expansion), but I do have an Arcade Card/HuCard that I have to push all the way in then slightly out to get it to work properly. I might recommend you buy an Arcade Card Pro, It supports regular CD, CD2, Super CD, and ACD and was designed specifically for the PC Engine. Your gonna have to fix the HuCard Slot/HuSlot PINS inside though, It's actually not that hard http://www.geocities.com/duo_r@sbcglobal.net/files/switch.install.txt. It took me about an hour. Or just buy a DUO which doesn't need a system card (it's internal). Hope this has been helpful.

Thanks. Yeah, it just recently stopped working. I will clean the contacts and fiddle around with it to see what happens. Thanks !
