A mint copy of Parasol Stars which I sold seems to have an error. According to the buyer there's only a white screen when he tries to start the game.

any ideas??

If he's using a Supergrafx and its not switched to the correct region you'd get a white screen...

-or any other system that is the wrong region.

I beleive that Parasol Stars is one of those games that both version  similar. Maybe they thought that it was the other version?

When I bought my PCE Cadash locally I didn't realize that it wasn't the U.S. version till I got home.
Justin the Not-So-Cheery Black/Hack/CrackTiger helped Joshua Jackass, Andrew/Arkhan Dildovich and the DildoPhiles destroy 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged/destructive/doxxing toxic turbo troll gang which he covers up for under the "community" euphemism!

I assume the buyer's already tried other games to make sure they work and it's not his system? And cleaned his system? I've gotten the white screen on HuCard bootup before when the HuCard or card port was dirty; cleaning both cleared the problem up.

Yes, this has happened to me as well -- a game "freezes" during boot-up.

Yama, I have never had a "broken" HuCard that didn't work (although someone posted here recently about a System Card that seemed corrupted in some manner... but I still have my doubts about that). I highly doubt that the problem is with the HuCard itself, especially if it was in good condition, as you indicated.
