As you may know, I just got a Candy 29 and I love it. My first Neo system and I'm already hooked. Anyway, I was wondering, do I have to power off everytime I want to change games? And how do I change the difficulty on games? Thanks mr_t

Yeah, you need to power off your system to switch games, unless you feel like possibly frying your motherboard or your cart.

To change the difficulty, locate the dip switches on the motherboard. Flip Dip 1 to ON (or is it off, whatever direction it's in now, switch it). You need to do this when you power on, otherwise the system doesn't recognize it. What flipping dip 1 does is it takes you into the "BIOS" and allows you to set the "Soft Dip" for each game. The BIOS also allows you to test the board and lots of other nifty things.

You may want to check out <a href="http://www.hard-mvs.com" target="_blank">Hard MVS</a> and locate the motherboard manual downloads. The manual will also explain other motherboard specific information.

When you are in the soft dip menu for a particular game, some of the terms are esoteric and you need the dip sheet to figure out what they are talking about; either the dip sheet or some time to play :D
