the b&w display is normal since my tv doesn't support ntsc. What do you think about this problem ?
Also, cleaning the hucard contacts didn't help at all...

thank you for your help

If that's actually the case, you are out of luck-- you need to chuck it and buy a new one. No one knows what causes the "damage" but I bought a factory sealed Ghouls 'n Ghosts (SuperGrafx) once that was bunk straight out of the shrinkwrap.

Wait! He shouldn't toss the HuCard... it can be used in an art project :)

I think a framed HuCard would look nice :)
