    changing the backup media type only applies to emulators. For a flashcart you need to arm7 patch the rom.

    hi looneylion did all that and i got a pat file but still does not work, same error. saw this in a link

    (It created a .PAT file which was identical to said .nds in terms of file name (ie. Metal Slug 7.PAT) but not size (should be 1kb).
    I patched the file while it was on the DS-X so there was no need to copy anything over.
    The .PAT file was present in my "apps/metal slug 7/" folder after patching.
    I forced the EEPROM to save (loaded up CV: POR, saved, switched off then turned it back on) and it was done)

    where do i go from here and how
