So My Gp2x Just Bricked...

[Cheekyflip]

So I'm sat there, on the bus, playing ComixZone on a Genisis emu, when suddenly I press the select button and BAM! It shuts itself off, and dies.
I've tried everything, plugging in the powerlead, changeing the batteries etc and nothing, it is now just a lump of plastic.

I got it brand new at X-mas. Any ideas on how to sort it out, or is it the case where I should be sending it back?

now thats strange... does it rattle or something when you shake it?

 

[Cheekyflip]

Nope. Nothing at all. I certainly have never knocked it, or banged it even a tiny bit.

There is absolutely no response at all. It wasn't overclocking, it wasn't underwater, hell it was hardly being held very tight!

It was running the latest firmware (or at least the latest that comes with it) it it was the super version of the two, (the hight ghz.)


I'm totally at odds to what to do. Any uber techno geeks have any ideas?



Ps Thats an endearing term, not and insult

Hate to be the wet blanket, but it's best to return it.

I happen to like wet blankets, thank you very much! But yeah, you should just return it.

Check that the battery terminals are gripping the batteries firmly. If they're not, bend them gently so they do.
