I have a Nintendo DSi, and wanted to buy a flashcard to download games onto. I got a Sandisk SDHC and downloaded a game, but it isn't recognised when I put it in my DSi- it says there is no compatible game software? I've searched may forums and got much conflicting advice.

So my question is this:
* will my card work? is there an upgrade I can install to make it work?
* If so, how do I do it?

Help please!

You have bought a micro SD - NOT a flashcart

Look into AceKard 2i, M3iZero, EZ Flash Vi - and avoid anything that calls itself R4

No, I bought an SDHC card- not mini or micro- link here http://www.amazon.co.uk/SanDisk-16GB-Sec...61413627&sr=8-1

The DSi accepts it, and I can save photos etc to it, but I can't get downloaded games to work on here.

You still need a flashcart.

That is what makes the ROMs work.

A flashcart needs a microSD IN ADDITION to the one that is used with the DSi.

Do some more reading. You haven't quite "got it".
