Sure the AV cable/RF switch is working correctly? I wouldn't really know how to find out and would hate for you to buy another one if that isn't the problem. Maybe some of the bigger techies in here could help you out. Other than that, I wouldn't really know.

its the round button, but the av i was using was for an oval button if that helps

Just to make sure -- your AV cables -still- work fine with your first Saturn, right?

yes, i was just playing gaurdian wars

OK, what you want to check next is the connection input on the saturn itself check the holes and make sure they are clean and theres nothing unusual about them. On this particular connection type even if only one of the pins isn't making a solid connection it could still give you a black screen. theres a couple more things you can look at but it would require opening up the system.
