Wait... this thing is locking up or acting stupid when using a Turbo EverDrive with roms, but from the sound of it does NOT do so with actual HuCARD games? 

Funny thing is, I have never had issues with my EverDrive.  I use a rom set that I went through and divided up by region/hacks/translations, and have never once had the TE lock up my system.  However, others have had issues with roms they had, that did just that.  Fixing it was as easy as directing them to my set. 

I guess the system should be tested with a real Huey to see what it does.  Then just go from there.

Can we make arrangements for me to get that ROM set or at least the ROM for Air Zonk so I can get it over to LaC? I'll send you a PM or if for some reason I can't,  my email is my user name on this site @gmail.com

OGHUGO, you still sold me a system with terrible jail bars which since have been greatly alleviated,  so I'm not sure where I lie on your claims of testing it. Maybe it is my ROMset, maybe not. Hope it's the former.

Well bad caps don't always leak AFAIK (my Game Gear experience definitely tells me this, at least for GG systems )but I'll bow out of this conversation since I'm not the most experienced person in technical matters like this.

LOL, what a twisted triangle. We have the original seller and now the buyer checking in in these last two posts. I'm not intending on taking sides, but I'll be curious to find out what the solution is. For the record, my TED never crashed in my Turbo Grafx, but I also never tested the Air Zonk ROM so I don't know *shrugs*

I *think* the romset I downloaded was indicated to be Everdrive friendly-- not that means anything at the end of the day since people make mistakes and a bad rom may not have been discovered.

I am a layman but would a bad ROM cause garbled graphics (and still run)? In my experience,  ROMs immediately lock up and never really run. I'm also not sure why he would get inconsistent results with running the ROM. Could still point to a hardware failure with the TED I guess,  but that still brings me back to the point of how I didn't have issue with my TG.
