I'm hoping someone can help with a PC10 problem I have. I just received a Metroid card in the mail today. When I plug it into a slot it displays the Metroid title along with the other 9 games but when you select it the screen will go blank; mostly completely black but it's been other colors too.

I've tried the game in different slots.
I've tried the game by itself.

Also, all other games plugged in will have garbled graphics only when Metroid is plugged into one of the slots.

[Edit]
Forgot to include a picture of the card itself.

Bump

I'm new to collecting PC10 cards and was curious about the chips too, are they most likely replacement chips?

No one else has experienced this problem? :/
 
Legs of the chip could be bent or placed improperly in the chipseat. From the look of it those chips could be replacement chips since it has the stickers on it. But then again you said it shows up properly on the game choice screen. You could remove the chips, U1 & U2 and check for bent legs and reseat them.
