    Make sure your batteries are fully charged. They sound like they may be near empty. Also, you should only need to push the main activation switch to turn the saber on, unless you have changed the setting on the PC.

    The "Lion roar" sound effect is the boot sound for the gray meat soundfont. It still looks like you need to change the switch setting in the config files.

    Okay so let me double check what I should do. First make sure the latching switch is set to NC and the momentary switch is set to NO, fully charge the batteries, and change the settings on the PC to switch=0. Is that all correct?

    NO. If you change the wiring, you should not need to change the switch setting. You can do one OR the other. If you do BOTH, you will have the reverse of the same problem you have now. Charging the batteries is still highly recommended.

    Okay so leave the wiring as is and make sure switch=1. Ill charge the batteries and try this out and then get back to you guys. I'm sorry I'm being such a noob right now.

    Now it's just one thing after another...I put the micro SD card into the adapter and into my computer and it won't let me do anything until I format the drive which would erase everything on the SD card. So I have no idea what to do at this point. Also, could my power up issues be happening because I haven't soldered the wires to the switches and there is a loose connection? I looked over the board quite a bit and I didn't find any bridging. I just have no idea what to do guys.

    Well, you need to make a backup of the SD card first and foremost. YES, soldering all the wired together helps A LOT.
