    R4 firmware noob

    Hi all,
    I have just found this site and wanted to ask if anyone could help me find out about my daughters R4 card. I don't know what firmware is on it or how to change it to the latest firmware (what to do hysically to the software on the sd card e.t.c.) and I was hoping one of you could help me.

    I noticed the wood 1.19 and was wondering if thats the one?

    Thanks for reading and I hope someone can help,

    Cheers,

    John.

      Hi,
      Thanks for the swift reply.

      The card is a R4 revolution for DS (NDSL/NDS)http://www.r4card.org/r4-card.html
      The SD card is a 2GB.
      The console is a DS lite.

      The problem I've been finding is more and more games just aren't loading. The screen will just go white and then nothing happens, so I thought it might need updating and here I am.

      Thanks again,

      John.

        that might be an original r4 card.

        backup your sd card, then delete your old firmware and put the latest woods firmweare on it.

        Digital Kaos - Downloads - woods 1.22

        just download and extract the two files to root your sd card.

          Have tried wood before, it just wont boot. I also found an old supercard one will play some of the things the r4 wont.

                        Umm I have a original R4 card (super old), 2 gig memory card.

                        So I tried to play pokemon black and white, i try to load the game and its just stuck in a white screen. Should I be using a wood firmware for updating? or some other firmware?

                        Since mine is the original? Should I be using Woods firmware or R4SDHC?

                        Thanks m8! and Sorry Ima nooby!
