    The problem is, once I finish downloading my NDS roms for my R4, and open up the winrar file for the rom, a message called "diagnostic messages" shows up saying "the file name" unexpected end of archives. Then when i try to extract the rom, half way there the message shows up again.....and I can't seem to un-zip it anyway...

    HOW DO I FIX IT???

    First, make sure you are using WinRAR, not Winzip. The NDS games here are stored in .rar files, not .zip

    Download it from rarlabs.com

    If that doesn't work, you likely got a corrupted download. Use a download manager like FlashGet to help avoid corrupted downloads.

    I try to open the Flashget file I downloaded.....And then it says "the installer you are trying to use is corrupted or incomplete.this could be the result of a damaged disk, failed download or virus..."

    Prehaps it hasn't downloaded correctly...

    Have you tried a second time?

    And yes winrar would help-personally I use 7-zip to by pass those "pay for me NOW" messages, but everyone here seems to put up with them, so get that XD

    Flashget...that's a download manager I believe, that won't open the file, you need winrar/7-zip to open it, but if it hasn't downloaded correctly, re-download it.

    RAR : WinRar
    ZIP and other : WinAce

    not WinZip
