Title: Pc Engine GT Screen Fault?
Post by: Broken on October 31, 2010, 08:10:17 AM

Hi I have a Pc Engine GT and all seems ok apart from that when you switch the GT on it takes a little bit for the screen to brighten up enough to be able to see it. I think this could be down to a faulty capacitor or component inside the unit.

Anything would be cool.
