Sega Megadrive
4 Answers
I've recently got a little nostalic and aqcuired a sega megadrive. All fine and dandy except I can't get it to work. Yes I have turned it on and even enlisted the help of my husband & kids but so far no success. I don't have a manual for the console and it was sold as working. I have got al the leads etc. I dont seem to remember it being this problematic when I had the original! Any ideas??

A scart lead for a sega? Thats different. If you're using a scart then it will be 'tuned in' on one of your AV channels. If you are using the standard one it comes with that replaces your normal airel (can't spell :-p) then you will need to fiddle with the tuning of one of your unused channels on the TV, make sure it is on with a game when you try and tune.
