I've bought a superflash 64M with CIC for my PAL SNES.
On my PC, it works fine, i can put 2/3... softs and the superflash software detects what games i've put on the card.

But on my SNES, i've only a black screen.
I've try with the T-connector i've also but it doesn't works anyway.

May be i've done some mistake
Thanks for help.

Oh, then the cic is not for your pal snes. We only sell NTSC cic.
So, please use original Pal cart plug on the back of t-connector.
Then turn the switch on the t-connector down.
It will use cic from your original cart

Thanks Tomy, it works fine.

But is there is a solution to put a flashcard with a CIC161 from PAL ?
Is there is a CIC for EUROPE on our cartridges, so i can open one of them to get it ?

Thanks a lot for your nice products.

Yes there actually is that possibility. Just search for some old PAL-gamecart like for example MarioWorld1, open it, carefully remove the CIC and solder it onto your Flashcart.

For my point desoldering and soldering the CIC worked fine, but you'll really have to be very careful not to heat it up too much, so it doesn't get damaged.

I have the same problem, BUT I don't use any CIC Chip. Of course it doesn't work, BUT it should with a T Connector + PAL Game. Right? But it does NOT! I use a PAL SNES, too. Shall I solder a CIC on it, too or is the Flash Cart destroyed? P.S. I can add games easily via PC, but theres no game menu, not with the newest Flash program and not with an older version (2.3).

HEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLP...

try some other original game-cartridge on the back of your t-connector. I recognized that it worked perfectly with some and not at all with some others. Also try changing the switch position on the connector when power is off. This can help as well^^

[Tomy]

Yes, like Flobo say, maybe the switch on wrong position. Turn it on nother position to try again. Also, maybe your original cart pins dirty. It can play well ?

[Emu&Co]

Yes the original works. The switch switches between blue (on my tv = no signal) and black. One additional thing. When resetting the snes on black screen, it flashes green one short time.

The green screen is for shure a problem with the CIC. Try to boot the SNES without a game inserted and you'll get the same result. Or try a japanese game in a PAL SNES. The result wi'll be a green screen.

[Emu&Co]

All right, but what shall I do? Would soldering a CIC onto the Flash Cart fix the problem? Btw, are the soldering points connected between front side and back side or must I solder the CIC from both sides?

[WhiteDRG]

Are you shure that the original cart is plugged into the Tconnector correctly ? The label of the game must show upwards.

I can't help with the CIC soldering problem because I ordered but the SF hasn't arrived yet. But I can't imagine that you need to solder it form both sides. Backside would be normal.

Quote: "The label of the game must show upwards. " - I know and it does.
Quote: "try some other original game-cartridge on the back of your t-connector" - I tried all 19 PAL Games I own, nothing. And the switch does not let it run, too.

Almost 6000 Roms and no working flash cart.....
