    Hi Im new to this so Please forgive if Im in the wrong section. I bought a DS for my wife and also a Datel Music and games Sd card. I plugged it in the back and the 25 homebrew games that came with the thing work. I've downloaded a few .NDS files and copied them across but all I get when I double tap them is either a black or white screen. Do I need to update the firmware and if so how? I'm totally stumped as to what to do next to get the .NDS files to run. The thing is the homebrew are also .NDS so that's were I've lost the plot. "Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi your my only Help" ( Sorry Corny but to the point)

    The Datel card is not capable of playing commercial roms, I'm afraid.

    Next is to throw the Games and Music card in the bin and get either a CycloDS Evolution or a R4 Evolution depending on your budget, personally I suggest the CycloDS but it's also a tiny bit more expensive, it works great though.

    Thanks I've just ordered a CycloDS Evolution and it only cost £35.00 so I'll bin the other one or give it to my daughter. Thanks again for the help
