    So my acekard just came a few days ago and I've been trying really hard to get it to work...I recently updated my Dsi to verison 1.4.1 (bcuz im a moron) and (of course) it blocks my acekard...I try it on a friends Dsi v1.3.0 and it still blocks it...I try it on my cousins DsL and it just gets stuck at Loading...what am I doing wrong? On my SD card I have...ak2ifw_update_141_for Dsi AND DsL my games, __ak2, and akmenu4.nds ...can you guys link or explain to me very detailedly what I must do to get it working on my Dsi v1.4.1

    TY

    you need to flash your cart, you already have the file, which is ak2ifw_update_141_for Dsi AND DsL.nds. the only bad thing is that you need a ds lite to do this. you start the flashcart and then go to ak2ifw_update_141_for Dsi AND DsL.nds and start it. just follow the steps there. it should work for dsi 1.4.1 after that. also make sure you download akaio 1.7.1 which is the latest firmware for acekards

    hmmm. download the akaio firmware first. then backup your card (just in case), then format your card. then add the _ak2 folder and akmenu4.nds. nothing else. let me know if it loads

    the thing is, that if akaio doesnt load, it could be a fake card. so therefore there wouldnt be much to do other than buy another cart. so lets see if it loads on your cousin's dsl. if it does, then you just have to add the ak2ifw_update_141_for Dsi AND DsL.nds file and do the update to your card. but im thinking it will work if you formatted the sd card. that usually solves many problems

    lololol, me and my friends were obssessed with a video on youtube called "fupa song" so then we started messing around, and a friend was like, i would love my fupa on a burger, i though it was hilarious, so then i started using on my Xbox live acount, and then on every internet related activity i do :)

    thats bad
    backup any games and sav files you have. format card, then.
    what file sdo you have on the root of the card. you should only have the akaio 1.7.1 files which are:
    _aio (its a folder)
    akmenu4.nds

    try only with these files, on the ndsl, if it gets stuck, its a clone cart, and there is no helping in that, other than buying a new cart

    You can click on it...it's just odd they don't let you just buy an Acekard and nothing else. They sell just Acekards bundled with something else.
