Hello!
I really need someone to help me out, I inserted the Micro SD card into the R4 and then into the Nintendo DS, but I keep getting something saying "Loading" but nothing happens after that!

I really would appreciate it if someone helped me out!

Thanks!

Arlene

If you search this forum you will find 100's of people having similar problems with the R4, below is the info which hopefully will help.

The biggest issue with the R4 is the number of different cards all needing different firmware's.

The general rules to eliminate most issues are,

1) Format your micro SD with Panasonics SD formatter (free use Google to find) and use it each time you change the firmware.

2) Download your firmware and extract it straight on to the SD (not onto the PC then transfer)

3) Try the available firmware's - http://www.linfoxdomain.com/nintendo/ds/ hosts them all, start with the likely candidates and work your way through

4) Ensure the SD is seated correctly in the R4 before putting into the DS

5) At this stage do not add any roms - get it past the loading screen first.

6) Unless it specifically says - the unit can take up to 2GB micro SD's, if it says SDHC then it can take up to 16GB (currently the highest available)

7) Ensure the DS clock is set correctly, this upsets some of the R4's
