I would check it with an MSX2 in order to locate where is the problem.

Aren't such things typical for power supply issues? The cartridge may need too much current...

I don't Know Manuel :-( but i have a megaflash scc+ cartridge in slot 2 and its working well.
The padial card is in slot 1 but I swap the order of cartridges and it's the same .

AFAIK not all memory mapper carts will work with MSX1. The mapper should auto-set ifself to pages 0,1,2 and 3 for proper working on MSX1 since their bios don't do it.
For example, the Oazem IDE MAPPER is confirmed to work with any MSX1.

AFAIK, I've seen the problems with the Padial's interface related with power supply (tR) so if it's working OK in your MSX2 (same configuration MSX-DOS1, etc) then you may check in different MSX1 to make 100% sure the problem is related with the computer and not with the interface.

Oh, wait, you didn't mean the weird coloring of the screen? Smile
