Having problems

No matter what game i download when i try to put it on my r4 it says: cannot read source file. And the game wont load. Can anybody help me out or point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance.DZL1.

Did you extract the file from the RAR, ZIP, or 7Z, etc, archive with WinRar or 7zip so that it'll be in a .NDS format?

Thanks for reply. I did extract using winrar. The problem is that it starts to load but then stops halfway and says cant read source file.DZL1.

Are you using the correct firmware for your card? And what type of R4 do you have?

Im using wood and i beleive the firmware is 1.8? not sure. Is there a way that i can verify firmware? Also im using the R4 Revolution DS card. Thanks.DZL1.

OK ace I loaded the new firmware on another identical card, and tried to load the very same game and getting the same result. Any ideas as to what might be the cause of this? Again thanks for your time and help.DZL1.

Not sure what the problem is. What are the sizes of the micro sd cards you are using?

2 gig. Thats the max size thats stable with this card i believe.DZL1.

as soon as you get a card the first thing you should always do is format it

Unless you know what you are dowing - "Also" nether mix firmwares on the one microSD chip
