I recently purchased Secret of Evermore at a pawn shop. When I turn on the console, I see the "Square Presents:" splash screen and then when it fades to black, it just freezes at a black screen. After trying my best to clean the contacts and such (even opened the cartridge and cleaned inside), for whatever strange reason I decided to try pressing Reset while it was frozen and after it reset, it worked. I've played 80% of the game and it works fine, just every time I turn it on I have to reset it in order to get past the black screen. My save file is completely intact, and there were even save files still on it when I bought it, and I tested the SRAM battery with a multimeter and it reads at 3V, so I'm really stumped what might be going on. Any ideas other than the battery? I really don't want to pull the battery this far into the game if it might be anything else...
