So my girlfriend missed playing the old DS games and picked up a DSLite for Chirstmas. I got a R4 card with 2gb microSD and I put woods kernal on and tried to play some games now im really unsure whats going on as games load and I can use bottons but certain parts of roms gets stuck, for example Super Mario 64 loads, I can press the star at the beginning then it will get stuck after selecting one of the items in the menu which can only be achieved with the buttons? Can anyone shed some light, I've tried every combination of kernal/rom ect, reformatted with diffrent SD settings all with the same result -.-
It's past Christmas, and even past New Year. I guess you no longer need help with this. In any case, I suspect your R4 is not one that can use WOOD R4 as it's secondary firmware. You're not even clear as to what the exact name of that R4 you have. It's probably one that is compatible with YSMENU. I can tell you that's nothing to do with the SD Micro, it's simply because your R4's primary firmware is out of date, to a point it doesn't even have the necessary coding/offset in it to by-pass the anti piracy contained in game rom past the firmware's last update.
You have to check with the text documents provided in RetroGameFan's Multi Cart package: http://filetrip.net/file.php?id=32958. In the package are several folders, you need to refer to the provided document against which R4 you have before proceeding with the one to use. To use which ever is meant for your R4 brand, you need to also follow the installation text provided there. If that doesn't help, maybe it's time to buy a newer better cart.
