N5 and ysmenu

Ok so I am new to this posting and have only posted 4 times before so excuse if I am missing something I should have read - a friend has a n5 card and I have been told that as n5 long ago gave up the ghost on new firmware (yes I know they are rubbish!) but apparently you can use another firmware...ysmenu. is this so and how do I put it on to the card and what do I need to delete in the case of older firmware - I am a mum and not very good at this flash cart stuff but try to muddle my way through but this has left me very confused - as I said before I am no up-to-date gamer so if you can point me in the right direction I am more than willing to sit and decipher and attempt to work it out - thanks for your patience and understanding

 

n5 is a clone of r4 and r4 uses it

try to set it up like you would a r4 and see if it works

 

YSMenu does not run well on clones of the R4.

 

Thanks for the replies!! So does this mean the N5 is just not going to work as no new firmware? sorry if I am still being a bit dumb here! :

 

Yes.
