Good luck dude, I'm getting a 4-slot soon so I hope I dont have any probs.................... 
I cut the red wire feeding the blue LED on the SG. Hopefully that sacrifice will help supply the 4 slot.
I have one of the older 4 slots. If you get one of the newer and smaller 4 slots you shouldn't have any problems running it on a standard PSU.
Yeah I was about to suggest power supply problems, that is a common problem. The only other thing I can suggest is to carefully clean all the contacts on your carts, and also to try and clean out the contacts on the MVS board itself. You'd be amazed at the amount of problems I had on both my 1 slot and 4 slot due to dirty contacts, MVS carts can be real fussy. Oh - another tip I can give you - I've had games that wouldn't work when pushed right down into the slot. What I would do for some games is gently push them right down, then carefully pull them back up a little bit, and quite often if the game wasn't booting up or if I got gfx glitches, it would work ok :)www.hardmvs.com has some tutorials on cleaning carts and stuff like that - it's nice and easy to do, just need to take care while doing it so you don't break anything 
Good luck man, I know how much of a pain it can be when you Neo isn't working properly [image]

I tried cleaning the contacts on the board and carts with alcohol as a substitute. Unfortuantely I didn't have electronics cleaner so I resorted to this.
Most of the carts actually work fine, even though most are used and dirty. After the 10 sec. lag, the screen starts up and game plays fine up until the point the system resets itself. Except Kizuna Encounter which I'm having problems with. I need to give that cart a good clean!!
I'm going to make a trip to RShack now. I'll buy some cleaner among other things from there.
Thanks for all your replies ppl. Appreciate it a lot that I can turn to you guys for help.
I'll tell you how it goes when i test out the 4 slot today.
