Hardware > Strange problem with GBA SP & F2A

#7235 - Mitsugari_ - Thu Jun 12, 2003 7:16 pm

I have a very strange problem with my GBA SP and 256M Flash2Advance Cartridge: sometimes the GBA SP just shuts down while I am playing, or the power lamp turns red (although the GBA is fully loaded) then shuts down, starts again, shuts down again and so on. It wouldn't be _that_ stupid, but everytime this happens all my savegames get lost.
This never happened when I played with my Doctor GB 64M Cart, so I assume it is not the GBA SP causing the problem but the F2A Cart.

Has anyone experienced that too? What could be causing that?
