Hi, I just bought my first mini-SD M3 adapter along with the Passcard 3 for my NDS Lite. I successfully patched and uploaded a few NDS games onto my mini-SD card. The problem is that I can't save games. When I save and turn off the DS, the next time I turn it on, the save file is gone! I've tried doing what the FAQ said on the m3 adapter site (question #20), but it still doesnt work! Can anybody please help? I have the latest M3 Game Manager and the latest firmware for the M3. By the way, when I start up the DS, I get this message:

Warning! NDS GAME SAVE in card but CANNOT find ATUOSAVE backup file. Backup fail! Press A to continue.

Please help quickly! Thank you.

look in your miniSD and see if there is a folder called NDSSAVES (something like that). In that folder there should be a .dat file with the exact same name as the game you are wanting to save... if there isnt, you are not uploading the game right.
