FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q. My game enhancer is malfunctioning (saving cheat codes, menu screens, etc.)
A. Try repositioning it slightly and make sure the black switch on the side is in the "UP" position. If this doesn't help, return it to the place of purchase for a new one.

Q. The GameShark codes I got for a game are not working or only partially working.
A. This was InterAct's (the makers of the GameShark) way to prevent people from using cheaper third party game enhancers to reap all the rewards of a GameShark. Basically, they found a way to create codes that will only work perfectly in authentic InterAct GameSharks. If the codes you get off the net EXPRESSLY require a GameShark version 2.X or above, then it is a good bet that they will only work partially or not at all with your game enhancer.
