Cheats not updating on Acekard 2i akaio 1.7.1

I'm using R4CCE to edit the usrcheat.db file on my acekard 2i. Even after I hit X to rebuild the cheat database, the new cheats I added do not show up. What am I missing?

usrcheat.db is not what acekard uses, usrcheat.dat is what it uses and all firmware from acekard.com has a cheat.dat cheat.xml usrcheat.dat files
