Cradle Issues

[silverstreakin]

i just got my gp2x package in the mail yesterday and when i tried to plug it in to the cradle the screen goes white and the console locks up. when i unplug it the screen goes back to normal but the gp2x is still locked up. im using fw 3.0.0 and all of the usb options are set to on. also when i plug it in the power light on the console dimms. anyone have any ideas of what may be the problem or maybe how to fix it?

thanks for your help

You need to power the GP2X and the cradle.

would it be sufficient to just use the batteries in the gp2x and get the power adapter for the cradle or doi have to get both power adapters...

If the power light is dimming, then too much current is being drawn. Most likely because there's no seperate supply to the cradle.

You can power the 2x via batteries, but if your using tv out, don't expect them to last that long. Much better to use power adaptor on both.
