Ds roms - save data cannot be found

Hi does anyone know why i can't play certain games?
I keep trying to download age of empires mythology, i have tried both the american and european mirrors and although i can download it when i come to play i get the message "saver data cannot be found, please switch off"

What flash cart are you using? You have to update the firmware of your flash cart.

Proably an emulator, either that or flashcart firmware needs to be updated. Check the common issues thread first.

Sorry a bit naive about all these emulators etc. i am using an R4, and the software is 1.18. i don't know what an emulator is. all in all i don't know how i got this far

R4 users have had issues running this game, even with the latest firmware.

Hi, I'm having the same kind of probs, I downloaded some games ie sim animals onto r4 v1.18 - working fine and then onto my other daughters r4 card v1.09 and it is coming up with the message save data cannot be found - other new games loaded onto this card are coming up with the message please switch of and re-insert the card. Please help as 2 daughters have all the games they wanted and the eldest has none. What can I do?

Just update the firmware on the V1.09 card to 1.18 and you should be sweet. Im sure AJ will correct me if im wrong.

The firmware differences is the reason it was working on your R4 and not your daughters. 1.09 is heavily outdated, so do what Al said.

Thanks Al and AJ but how do I do that?

Don't buy a new R4 card unless it's not working for any games. It's most likely a firmware issue. Also, this game might need the arm7 fix to work properly. I can't remember for sure...I just checked it out, and it does. If you're still having trouble after updating your firmware, download the arm7 Injector on the bottom of this page and follow the instructions in the readme file.
