On a semi related note to this thread i have a PAL super nintendo that produces this static when i turn it on. Initially it didn't do anything when i turned it on so i gave the pins a good clean out with some isopropyl alcohol and contact cleaner.

Any idea ls what the problem could be?

I picked up an old super nintendo (PAL) from my friend the other day to test it to see if it still worked.

When i plugged it in and turned it on nothing appeared on the screen, so I gave the cartridge slot a good clean with some cotton buds and isopropyl alcohol.

Now whenever i turn it on i get a jumbled mess on the screen like pic related when plugged into the multi out and awful static when plugged into the RF out port.

Does anyone know the possible cause of this problem and how to fix it? I haven't torn it apart yet since i don't have a game bit, but i can probably just make a makeshift one with an old crappy flathead and a makeshift one if necessary.
