The weird thing about this is that the Sega I/O and GD power cables have the same connector, but are wired differently. If you switch them, then the I/O and/or the GD will blow a circuit. Of course, this means that they don't seem to work no matter how you connect them--because they are dead. Did you connect and power them at any time?
