    I have a JAP SNES that i just bought a few days ago
    and im using the Dragon Driver 32MB (pro fighter clone) copier.
    I couldn't connect the original AV cable that came with it
    because it came with a scart cable and i dont have a scart point o my tv
    I used my nintendo 64 av cable and connected it to my tv
    "61inch JVC Projector TV" its multi system so i did set the colour mode to NTSC . I dont have another game to test it with, and im going to test it on a
    different tv today but any1 knows what may be the problem ?
    Is it the SNES console ?
    maybe the Dragon Driver thing ?
    AV Cable ?
    or maybe TV ?

    It flicker is not that bad but its still annoying when you try to test things on it .

    Ok so i think that i found the problem.
    The PAL cable and the NTSC cable is exactly the same.
    The problem was the power supply !
    When i connect the 9v center - power supply to the nintendo the screen is flickering, but if i connect the Dragon driver power supply the screen is good. the only problem is that i cant use the dragon driver, so im getting another power supply and then i will be able to test it, but looks like its going to solve the prob..
