Just great

The SCART switch I bought from Argos doesn't recognise when the GameCube is plugged into it - the image appears for 1/20 of a second then vanishes.  Which is just silly, as the old £5 one worked fine.

And the MediaMVP I picked up doesn't work at all.  No lights, no signal, not even a flashing on the hub where the ethernet is plugged in.

Is it too much to expect that things would work when you plug them in?

Know what you mean about equipment, although I got a lovely broadband/router to worl after some bad language - a pci ethernet card has defeated me and I must return it to the shop before I kill someone.

Odd- usually ethernet cards are so simple that nothing you can do can make them go wrong.

This is why the shop beckons. . . .
