OK...I have just got my 3 in 1 Expansion Pack and it works PERFECTLY with my Acekard 2i on my DS Lite. Loading ROMs and rumble could not be better, however I can not figure out how to install the proper software to my 3in1 using GBA_ExpLoader to make the browser to work...any help would be appreciated. Whenever I load the NDS Browser, it says to plug in the cart that came with the purchase of the software. Thanks,

You need to patch the Browser program to make it work.I'm having trouble finding the patch right now, but I'll see if I can find it.Edit:According to some websites (that I can't really link to) if you use Rudolph's Tools, you can set the EZFlash 3 in 1 to "Ram Mode" and the Clean Opera ROM will detect it correctly and work.You can find it at www.linfoxdomain.com/nintendo/ds It is under Essential Utilities and is called "3-in-1 Expansion Pack Tool v1.9d"

OK, I have downloaded the 3in1_ExpPack_Tool.nds and when I click it, a message comes up saying "3in1 expansion pack not found Please redo from start". However when I go to the GBA_ExpLoader.nds program it recognizes my expansion cart and I can play any of my GBA games with no problems. I also have tried changing the settings on the 3in1 Expansion Cart to Expansion Mode and the DS Browser will insist that I need to insert the original cartridge that came with the purchase of the browser(HA!). Is there a possibility that the DS cartridge has to be a EZ Flash card? Please let me know what you think,
miros
ps. Thanks for the link to the useful website

Hmm. I cannot test it because I have a CycloDS, and it does certain things automatically and doesn't work with Rudolph's tools or GBAexploader the same way.But according to the data on the 3 in 1, the acekard is a supported card. It says it has to be set to Expansion Mode (Rumble) in order to work as the RAM expansion for the DS Browser.Do you have a 3 in 1, or a 3 in 1 Plus? I think a lot of cards have trouble with the Plus versions because of a changed hardware.

It is an "EZFlash 3-in-1 Memory Expansion Pack for NDS Lite " if it helps I ordered it from Deal Extreme -sku.2967-. I will try changing the settings to rumble to see if that may make a difference...nope the same message comes up. Should I try a different DS Browser or continue to finagle with the one I downloaded here? If I should change, what would you recommend?

ps- DX is really an awesome website to order from-just as a side note

Well, hopefully there is someone else out there with a bit of experience. I cannot think of anything else.Just for kicks, are you using the latest version of the firmware, and if you haven't, have you tried the Alternate firmware AKIAO?

I am certain that I am using the latest firmware but I have not tired to use the AKIAO firmware. That is an interesting idea, I will try it out tomorrow and will let you know my results. Thanks again,

...I don't know what's going on, but I never needed that program on my acekard 2.1, I just plug my 3 in 1 in, and select the rom as normal, I might have used the akio firmware to open it, but I never needed the exploader app...Wow, gbatemp is down, well google akio's site and you might find something...hopefully the firmware you need.

thanks forthe replies.
i got the AKIAO firmware, ran the DS Browser without any problems. the AKIAO firmware basicly has the GBA loader builtin, so running a GBA ROM is just as simple as a NDS one..
thanks all
