HELP !

Hi everyone, when I say I am new to this I mean NEW. I have a NDS and I am running games via an R4. until today I have been downloading games from 2 sites ROMSITE (when it works which is now almost never) and DS-DOWNLOADS. When I have downloaded from these sites the game is stored in a yellow zip folder (told you I was new ::)) stating that it is a compressed zipped file but when I download from this site the game shows up as a white page (for want of a better word) stating that it is a RAR File on the memory card folder but does not show on the NDS screen when i scroll through the games (hope this makes sense) please tell me were I am going wrong as this site is by far the best site I have been on to date and should I be able to use the games then its only a matter of time before all my family and friends are becoming members.
Kind Regards
Tony

you need to unzip the rar file to turn it into a NDS file....pretty sure thats right

rar files are also compressed files, but you need winrar (www.rarlabs.com) to open them. There is a tutorial in our tutorials section if you need further help.

thanks people, its all soted now, sorry for not reading before posting. hope I can help someone in the future when im a little more with it
