OpenMenu = Black Screen :(

Post by tonysantana »

I've found numerous reports online of people experiencing this. I've tried it with GDMenuCardManager v1.33 and v1.35. I've tried it with a VGA connection and a composite connection. I have an NTSC-U console with a Bitfunx GDEmu v5.15b (clone). The regular GDMenu works fine, but OpenMenu just gives a black screen with the VMUs showing the OpenMenu logo. The proposed solution of removing the VMUs does nothing. Has anyone found a way to solve this?

I have exactly the same problem

For clarity I am using the Mac OS version as I don't have easy access to a Windows PC

Everything seems to work in the process (they are very simple steps after all) but I get the black screen on loading

I am only putting two games on there to start with but makes no difference

Make sure its GDI games. CDI do not work on that older version. I found that 2.0.0 works fine for CDI or GDI so I finally got that all working
