Right, help again please

I bought 4 R4 cards ages ago for the original DS and did all the doings and had no probs what so ever and they still work absolutely fine...great idea these cards.

Then I opened my big gob and a friend asked me to do one for them but this time for a DSi. Came on here and thanks to pjtaffs help got that sorted with not much hassle (other than the first card coming with a faulty micro sd card which had to be sent back) all sorted.

Now,my wonderful wife loves playing on the DS so much she has had her own, but this time its a DS lite. I bought a R4 card and a 4GB micro sd card for wifes DS and do you think I can get it to bloody work.........

I've trawled this site, downloaded all the firmware known to man and all I get when I turn on the DSlite is 2 blank screens but on the top screen in red is menu and a question mark and nothing else.


Can someone please give me guidance or I may use the DS for target practice:stupido2:

Take a picture of the card. Post it up.
Describe what is written on the front.

I will find the correct software for it.

So many cards out there. Clones that is.

Buzzking mate you're a star and the DS lite is working fine now many thanks.:hello:


While I've got your attention folkes, please bear with me, I know I'm a pain...........

Back to the r4i + 4gb card it aint working properly.
When i turn on the dsi the card loads to the tab menu (ie.games,media,slot 2). If i touch games i get a "name to long reduce name size,blahblah" and nothing else works so i have to reboot the ds. However, if i touch the media tab, the whole list of games is there, but if i touch any game,i get a black + white message on the top screen and the game doesnt load,and I have to reboot the ds again.

So everythings there but not working properly
help help help:alberteinstein:

Hi lads, I have a DS Lite and purchased a TTDS R4 card and SD micro memory from Deal Xtreme as mentioned in this and other threads.
I have downloaded and copied ALL 3 firmware versions mentioned in this thread and every one of them has failed. Each time I insert the R4 card and start up the DS Lite i get the upper screen showing an icon of a micro sd card in red and the word "MENU?"

Is there something I'm missing here? I have verified today's date in the settings.
Thanks,
Milo

no i just started with 1 game to ensure it all worked. I'll try the drivers you've recommended above and let ye know how it goes

That did the trick, obviously the DSTT cards require their own drivers - I should have copped that one right away!

Thanks for the dig-out Buzzking, you ROCK!

Came upon this thread after several hours of trawling through the forums and downloading different programmes for my DS. Loaded the programme recommended by Buzzking5 and all the problems with the R4 have been sorted. Thanks.
