Unfortunatley you probably need to upgrade the DSi to 1.4 to make it work

Upgrading from 1.2 or 1.3 to 1.4 caused the issues as it blocked all flashcarts. Most flashcarts are now 1.4 enabled, some can now not play on a 1.2 or 1.3DSi. Upgrading to 1.4 will cause you no issues but may solve the not working. If not then if you buy another flashcart - avoid anything with R4 in the name

dstti work well on 1.4, if you have the ubisoft lethal alliance logo for the icon that starts the games then the cart is updated for 1.4 firmware just finding the right most upto date kernel for the micor sd card that works with that particular r4

If I buy an acekard2i will it already be setup to run on a v1.4 or do I still need the DS or DSI with v1.3 to configure it. as I dont have one!

If you buy an M3iZero then it has a cable to connect it to the PC to update it (never need a DSLite or 1.3 DSi to upgrade
