MOMENTARILY shorting out the battery works on most machines - touch a piece of wire from the positive to the negative side.
Do be careful though!

Either that or take out the gamecard and start it up, then switch it off and replace the card.

thanks, though the game card is so delicate so dont want to risk taking it out. took me a while to get my hands on one.

I thought that was too obvious to mention mate, then I thought about it again, and you never know! :lol: :wink:

As post number 2 above - switch the machine off, take a short piece of wire and touch it between one side of the battery and the other, literally for just a second.
