arm7 problem

This is the second on two problems I had recently. The first was an SD error which required a format and me losing all my save data. Fine.However, having formatted my card and getting it back exactly as I left it, I find that certain games no longer work. So I tried different firmware (R4DS), but it didn't work. I tried the arm7 method, and after some difficulty I managed to get GTA to the title screen where is offers autosave methods, once I choose, I am in blackness.What I don't understand is how GTA worked fine yesterday, but not now.

If its a original R4 ?https://www.romulation.org/forum/index.php?topic=27617.msg466427#msg466427Try unpatched game with cheat enabled , DSTT v1.17a12 ysmenu

Ok, I will give that a go. I have tried about half a dozen different methods, to no avail. Here's hoping!
