Hey guys,
I recently decided to create myself a little game room. The room I'm using is small and I didn't have a ton of space, but I planned to put my SNES in there, I had to purchase a new LED tv to put in the media center and when I put my SNES up it would not work. I assumed it was just because the TV was newer, based on some sites that I was reading, it wouldn't be compatible.
Today I decided to move my SNES back to my LCD tv that I had it on but I'm having the same issue. So, now I'm not sure if I am setting it up wrong and forgot that I had to do something different or I'm afraid it may be dead. I never used my SNES that much as a kid, it was treated very well and now is treated even better and I don't use it as much as I even used to. So it really shouldn't be dead, but I know with age it can happen.
So, basically I'm trying to set up my SNES, second model, to a 2008 (I believe) Sony LCD TV using the RCA cables. I plugged the cables into the corresponding colors and changed the input on the TV, when I turn on the SNES all I get are gray lines on the screen.
Hopefully I'm just have a brain lapse at the moment and I'm forgetting a simple and crucial step, I really don't want SNES to be dead and it gave no warning signs at all when I played it a few weeks ago.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
EDIT!!!
I just kept playing with it tonight, making sure connections were tight, etc. After a while I got an image, but it was flashing, now I'm getting an image with lines going through, horizontal lines that are scrolling down, and the sound is making some funny noises as well. So I'm assuming this is a problem with the system, possibly one of the cables?
