Title: Turbo Express possible problem
Post by: Twood1130 on June 01, 2013, 08:19:34 PM

While playing my recapped turbo express, I heard a pop, and the screen flickered a bit, and then a few minutes later the same, and the unit continued to work. However now when i turn it on i get a green screen for a moment then the system turns goes to the game.

Did it do that before and am i just being paranoid, or should i be concerned?

I seem to remember the screen being black before going to the game, or when there is no game. Can someone else confirm this?

I would open it up and see what that pop was. Could be one of the cap exploded.
