My Gp2x Doesnt Load, Screen Comes On Then Fades Away

[newbjohny]

Hi, I just got my GP2X today and was working fine until I tried to load the duke nukem game which just went to a blank screen, which I left for a few minutes to see if it was just a bit slow, but nothing happened so I turned it off and back on again and now it goes to the green screen then scrambles a bit then fades to white and nothing works.

How can I get it to work again?

Many thanks

John

Have you tried changing the batteries?

yeah, the gp2x is a fag with batteries. Either change them or wait 30 minutes and try again.

why wait 30 minutes then try again? so the screen can come on for 2 seconds then do the same thing???

just change your batteries, a lot of us had the same "oh crap" feeling when they saw the screen go funny for the first time. Buy a GOOD set of rechargable batteries.
