I have also tries the MaxCrass method with no joy, the game is a black screen on loading :-( . Guess the only way is to get a new card, anyone any suggestions on the best to buy. i.e. m3i or ackercard etc?

official support for that card stop a long time ago.
unfortunatly i don't think that woods firmware will work on it...
you might be able to use retrogamefan firmware to update it.
you will have to google retrogamefan and download the latest version.
when you open the file you should a text document called "known cards that use dstt fimware"
this will give a list of known working cards and instructions on how to use.
I have highlighted the selection that i think has the best chance of working for you...Code:Natively Working (Replaces ORIGINAL Firmware) : DSTTi Gold - www.ndstti.cn -> Just copy files (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) DSTT-Advance - www.dstt-adv.com -> Just copy files (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4Top Revolution - www.r4top.com -> Just copy files (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4iTT - www.r4itt.net -> Rename TTMenu.dat to r4.dat (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4i V1.45 Revolution - www.ndsiLL.net -> Rename TTMenu.dat to iLL.iL (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4i SDHC Upgrade Revolution - r4i-sdhc.com.tw -> Rename TTMenu.dat to iLL.iL (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4i Gold Upgrade Revolution v1.4.1 - www.r4igold.cn - > Rename TTMenu.dat to iLL.iL (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4i Gold Upgrade Revolution v1.14b - www.r4igold.cn - > Rename 1 copy of TTMenu.dat to R4i.dat (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4i SDHC Upgrade Revolution - r4i-dshc.com -> Rename TTMenu.dat to R4i.TP (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4i King LL - www.r4-king.com -> Rename TTMenu.dat to R4KING (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4i DSi XL - www.r4i-ndsill.com -> Rename 2 copies of TTMenu.dat to iLL.iL and R4i.TP (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4V-R4i v2.2 and v2.5 - www.r4-v.com -> Rename 2 copies of TTMenu.dat to iLL.iL and R4i.TP (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4 Deluxe v1.20 - www.r4deluxe.com -> Rename TTMenu.dat to _DS_MENU.DAT and then DLDI patch _DS_MENU.DAT (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) THIS ONE R4IIISDHC v3.07 - www.r4iiisdhc.com -> Rename TTMenu.dat to R4.dat (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4i-SDHC 1.41 and v1.42 - www.r4ll-net.com -> Just copyfolder (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4SDHC v1.34 - www.r4sdhc.com -> Just copy files (Use R4SDHC folder) M3Real/M3Simply/M3iZero - www.m3adapter.com -> Just copy files (Use M3Real_M3iZero folder) Working as Dual Boot (Keep your ORIGINAL Firmware) : TTi Upgrade Revolution - www.nds-tti.com -> Rename TTMenu.dat to YSMenu.nds (Use DSTT_DSTTi folder) R4 SDHC Upgrade Revolution - www.r4i-sdhc.com (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4i SDHC Upgrade Revolution - www.r4i-sdhc.com (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) Supercard DSONE - eng.supercard.sc (Use DSONE_DSONEi folder) Supercard DSONEi - eng.supercard.sc (Use DSONE_DSONEi folder) R4Top Revolution - www.r4top.com (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4i SDHC Upgrade Revolution - www.r4i-sdhc.com.tw (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4i SDHC Upgrade Revolution - www.R4i-dshc.com (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4DSiXL3D - www.r4dsixl3d.com (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4i Advance v2.0 - www.r4i-advance.com (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4-IIIi v4.03 and v4.04 - www.r4dsl.net (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4i SDHC Revolution v2.07 - www.r4sdhc.com (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4i SDHC Revolution - www.r4i.cn (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4v-r4i using v1.46 (red PCB, 1.4 'new' sticker) (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4v-r4i using v1.41 (red PCB, 1.4 with sticker) (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4 Pocket - www.r4ipocket.com (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4i Pocket - www.r4ipocket.com (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4i-Gold - www.r4i-gold.eu (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4i-Gold - www.r4i-gold.com (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4iSDHC Revolution - www.r4ita.com (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4xDS - www.r4xds.com (Use R4-SDHC_R4i-SDHC folder) R4-III Upgrade Revolution - www.r4iiinew.com (Use R4_Clone folder) R4i-SDHC Revolution - www.r4-pro.com (Use R4_Clone folder) R4-III Revolution Upgrade - www.r4dsl.net (Use R4_Clone folder) N5/i - www.dsn5.com (Use R4_Clone folder) R4iNDSiXL - http://r4indsill.com (Use R4_Clone folder)
before you start messing with the firmware, you should make a backup of your sd card or better still, use a spare sd card.
wouldnt want to change somethng on sd card and flashcard stop working alltogether...

even the dual boot one? (2nd option)
you should at least get the original firmware booted up...
tbh, you might be bettter buying a newer card...
you will get a decent card for under 20quid, then just use your current sd card...

Tried both your highlighted fixes with no joy. I did notice there is a hyphen in the websites you suggested and on my r4 card there isn't a hyphen? I guess a new card is probably the best fix. I want to get Moshi Monster game to work for my daughter. A patch would be welcome too. ;-)

not all ds roms are patched.
the AP measures are generally overcome by firmware updates on the flashcards.
this is the reason that picking a good flashcard is essential.
i use this site alot.
it has a patching tool you can download which willl patch the games that require it.
( if you read the info on individual games , its tells you whether patching is supported)
out of interest, are you using a dslite or a dsi?
