I should know better by now.

Do you have a technical question that doesn't really fit a specific console? Want some general info on electronics, hacking, making cookies, etc? Here's the place to ask! Go nuts.

but I bought a gameboy advance Sp at a yardsale today & didn't test it until I got home. Needless to say it doesn't work. I tried the battery from it on my other gameboy advance & it worked fine (the battery). When I plug the unit in, the orange light comes on for about 1 second & then turns off again. Nothing else happens. Any ideas? Thanks.

hey, my DS (original) was doing the exact same thing the other day!

um. it turns out that the battery was loose and it cant turn on without the battery or something.

I dunno, I just took the battery out and put it back in and it magically started working again.

good luck.
