N64 Issues

At the moment all you can really do is keep trying different variations, once you remove human error from the list of causes, then you are left with a dead N64. Even if this is the case, a used N64 is cheap to come by.

^ PC emulation of N64 games isn't very good. not a whole lot of games are supported real well (i hope demonizing emulation isn't against the TOS since it is technically speaking of it) z4twenny

So long as you only play the games you physically own.

That is not true. By opening the game box and running the cartridge/cd in the game box, you agree to the licence on the game manual, which explicitly states that you may not make copies or duplicates of the game for any reason.So playing games you phisicaly own on a emulator is illegal unless you were to find a way to plug the cartrige/cd into your computer and not make a dump of it.

If you want legal emulating, go to the PS store, Wii virtual console, xbox live arcade, or gametap/anyother paytoplay emulating services for.

As for the OP, I'm sorry that has happened to you pal, only-thing I can suggest is maybe the led burnt out, thus cutting the circuit for the rest of the console. A replacement might work, or it could be something simple like a collection of dust, open the system up and use compressed air or some other strong blowing device to remove the dust. Dust is one of the main causes of system failure besides physical damage or worn out parts.
