Oh, and the cartridge isn't in backwards is it? Even Ben did that once.
No the cartridge is facing the proper way, if only it was that easy of a fix.

Well I'm positive it isn't a SNES power problem, as now I do get a reading form the on/off switch, but the thing still isn't running. Question about grounding the SNES, should i use the spot on the screen where i grounded the LEDs or the spot used on the switchs spot?, or should I have all 3 grounded to the same spot?

yeah then some one said(i think gamelver) that since I had the SNES grounded to the screen that it was fine. Maybe I was reading it wrong, either way it works now I'm happy, you're right, I'm a fool for not listening, praise be you

This little drunk guy is always right, but don't worry, most people don't listen to me at first. How I loathe those people. But not as much as I loathe the little drunk guy. Anyways, I'm glad you got it working.
