have just bought an r4 III SDHC. it came with USB and SD card, but no software disc supplied. have tried downloading software from the site which i purchased r4 from, but when i try to load up my ds, the loading screen turns to a red icon with the word "menu" below.

climbing the walls here so any help will be greatly appreciated as new to all this and have spent the last 5 hours downloading different links only nothing seems to work!! dont know where I am going wrong.

Still only getting as far as the R4 top screen and the bottom screen is frozen. Dont know what I am doing wrong, I have wiped everything off the card and started again numerous times and still the same. Where am I going wrong? Someone said you have to format the card first, but how do you do that?
Thanks
Kate

I left it all to my son, will have to ask him but sure that he did. Cant believe that I managed to get my Eurovox up and running and yet this has got me stumped!! Thanks for your help.

Bin file ? DS games finish in nds not .bin, I'm confused.com with this also.
Anyway Katie once you have downloaded your game, just drag it into your memory stick.

I also bought one of these clones and it doesn't have a cd and the software I downloaded from their website (www.r4iiisdhc.com (http://www.r4iiisdhc.com)) doesn't seem to get it working well.

I know exactly where you're coming from. Had exactly the same problem. Don't normally reply to these things - I'm shy! But having spent the last 3 and a half hours sifting through reams and reams of help, suggestions, criticisms and put downs, downloading version after version of firmware and still getting nowhere, when I finally found one that works, I just had to pass it on to you. I found a site called http://linfoxdomain.com/nintendo/ds/ and from here, select the R4IIISDHC v3.07 english.zip file (4.60MB). Unzip it (it's not a .rar file) and even though mine then said v3.04, I WASN'T WORRIED BECAUSE IT WORKS!!!! The company I bought the card from have since replied with the following ...

"Please go to www.r4iiisdhc.com (http://www.r4iiisdhc.com/)

Download 3.07
And then extract it

Put the contents of r4_eng into the 4gb card make sure you drag the 4 files in and not the r4_eng folder itself"

I'm sure that was one of the million things I'd previously tried, but haven't tried it again as THE LINFOXDOMAIN SITE WORKS!!! I hope it works for you too. I have no hair left!
