Ah sorry, I forgt to mention, that I only have 2600 carts. The 2600 carts don't 
need such a key, right ?

  Sorry I don't know much about the startup procedure but maybe you try to play 
PAL Cartridges on a NTSC Device?

  NTSC Devices expect a valid key stored in a specific range of the cartridge 
that PAL Carts don't have (PAL Devices don't use this encryption because of 
export restrictions).

  Do you know, how the 7800 detects if a valid cartridge is plugged in ?

    If you have trouble with more than one cartridge than I guess your 7800 
have a problem.

    Hi !

     

    I am having trouble with a 7800. How does the 7800 detect that a cartridge

    is plugged into its cartridge port ? It starts up the built in Asteroids 
for some of

    the cartridges I have here, even if they are plugged in ...

     

    Is the 7800 faulty or the cartridges, or is this a common problem ?

     

    Armin
