R4 Upgrade Card

Hullo i am new to all this please can you help .I have bought a R4 Upgrade Revolution Card for DS i cant get it to work on my DS what am i doing wrong have i bought the wrong card for my DS player!
John :'(

R4s are not the card to get for DSs at all. All new ones now are fakes. My suggestion is to either get the Acekard DSi card, the DSTT DSi card, or wait for the CycloDS DSi flashcard

did it come with a disk to load moonshell

How's it not working? More specific.

For the Acekard DSi card, the DSTT DSi card, or CycloDS DSi what size memory card will work without ruining the DS?

you should have got a disk with your r4 card if not go to this site http://linfoxdomain.com/nintendo/ds/ but if you look on your r4 card it will tell you what kinda r4 card it is

Leelees, whatever you want (which the flashcart can support of course). Don't go for a too high capacity though. Try a 4, 8, or 16GB (or lower of course).

Make sure you have the latest firmware loaded onto your MicroSD.Go to http://linfoxdomain.com/nintendo/ds/You said you had an R4 Upgrade. Probably the R4-III / R4 Upgrade Latest: v3.08
Download the english file (or another language if you English is not your primary language), extract the files to your MicroSD.

Try backing up and format your MicroSD as well.

If you have a r4 sdhc go to http://www.ndslr4.com/download-en.htm. I had the same problem with mine and it worked fine afterwards.

hi,i feel like an idiot but here goes have just got a R4-IIIupgrade card and cant get on with it.....i have formatted the 4gb sd card to fat32....loaded the latest software fromhttp://linfoxdomain.com/nintendo/ds/........
NEW R4IIIr4-dsl_v3.09_English.zip 7.48 MB.........and also been to http://www.ndslr4.com/download-en.htmand put....... R4 SDHC v1.25 kernel (English/French/Korean/Japanese/Spanish) on and still i get a red pic com up with menu...i was getting moonthing but with an error...i am now so confused what exactly do i need to do to get this thing working? many thanks

you were right the first time, you want the R4-III upgrade software. moonshell always gives an error as far as I know, you can ignore it and it will work.

Hi,have gone back to beginning ...i have downloaded the update from site i got the R4 from unzipped it and pasted it on to the sd card...now when i put in to my ds it loads moonshell nds but but when you touch screen picture comes upbut then says error is this right?and can i now put on games?
thankyou

I believe the moonshell error is normal, yes.

thankyou
have downloaded a game to my documents do i just paste this into the sd card via the usb and then load on to ds...so sorry but finally feel like im getting somewhere...thanks

you need to extract the game using winrar (www.rarlabs.com), see the relevant tutorial in the tutorials section if you aren't sure how, then yes you just paste the extracted .nds file onto your microsd.

Is a regular error which is unfixed in 1.7.1 yes.
