format cart to fat32 for a start, then need more onfo on the card.
I have spend all day on this lovely forum but seem to have a unique problem with my card
I have a R4 Revolution for DS (NDSL/NDS) card and a 1gb nokia micro sd card.
I have formatted the sd card using FAT16 on my computer
and the SD format software found in the download section on this forum
I then copied Wood 1.41 files onto it and a simple game.
I placed my card into the DS Lite but gets Loading ... and then it hangs.
I then formatter and copied the English 1.18 onto it but get the same loading... screen
I then tried v1.29b and this has the same problem.
Feel like throwing it away ... anyone got any advice on gettting this working?

hi m8 had similar prob mine was on new 3ds cart mine hung on loading when i tried to format the 4gb micro sd it came up write protected tryed evrything to fix it run out of ideas tryed panasoni micro/s a camera aphone still no joy oh forgot to say i am usin a proper micro sd card reader not 1 of those with a switch on the side have tried several card readers all to no avail any ideas i would be very thankful cheers
there is a switch on micro-sd adapters that controls write protect to miceosd cards.
maybe you have switched it on..
Ive formatted with Fat32 and put on English 1.18 but still get black screen with the words loading...
My card is second hand, so no box im afraid, it use to work previously in a DS Lite, but the owner upgraded and sold the card to me (no idea about the ds lite)
It is dark grey with a plain back (no words or stickers)
The front has the words
R4 Revolution for DS (NSDL/NDS)
It is smooth so I guess it is a genuine card
What next?

format sd card (again!, yes i know)
downlod latest woods firmware
Digital Kaos - Downloads - woods 1.40b
extract and copy file/folfer to root of sd card.
add a few older roms and trst in a dslite if possible..
Yip that's what I done and then put the right files on to it,it worked for me
Um - do you think it is worth getting a different micro card, maybe a 2gb one to test with?
or does anyone have any idea how to get my combination of r4 and micro (see OP post) working?
if your computer reads your sd card ok then i doubt that would help.
only thing i can think of is that you are not put the file on right.
you have to copy the "rpg" folder and "dsmenu" file to root of sd card...
eextract both these files to root of sd card check..
__rpg.rar
_DS_MENU.rar
I'm sure that is what I did but will try again, I also put a game into the root directory as well, but will try without any games to see if it loads.
I have just ordered a new R4 card and 2GB micro from R4i-gold R4i Gold 3DS | R4i Gold 1.4.3 | R4 3DS Card | R4 3DS UK
I shall see what happens with this, the card was cheaper than I thought even with the P&P
So hopefully in 8 days I shall be all working.
Thank you for all your help - I'll post back with the results.
