    Hi, im currently using a supero card for my nds. and just yesterday, after i play a few games. The next time i tried to boot my NDS. it came out with a blue screen.

    Init FileSystem.
    FileMaxCount=256
    not found EXFS.
    Detected adapter is MPCF.
    (or external CF/SD memory adapter)
    find path...
    find.
    find./RECYCLED

    The blue screen showed that. Then i tried reading the memory card through my pc. all my files in the memory card. became one file named "USBCȉ."

    That file is probably corrupt. Try deleting it, and reinstalling your firmware. If you can't delete, run the chkdsk on your MicroSD.

    That means it's really corrupt, then run chkdsk on it for errors, right your MicroSD, it's in one of the tabs.

    Your card is corrupted, and I'm not sure how it happened. You might've turned your DS off when saving? Anyway, I'd say the easiest thing to do is to format your SD card (Delete everything on it). If using Windows, do the following:

    1. Insert your SD card into your computer.
    2. Go to "My Computer" (or "Computer" in Windows Vista)
    3. Right-click on the SD card's icon.
    4. Click "Format"
    5. Use the settings already selected for everything, but make sure the dropdown bar says "FAT," not "FAT 32"
    6. Allow the card to format. Do not take it out of your computer. Do not turn off your computer.
    7. Now that everything's off the card, put your files on it again and start over.

    Hope this helps ;)

    Quit all applications and processes that have anything to do with any of the files. Or try restarting your computer, which should end all the processes to do with your drive.

    ^Sucks, he didn't back up his data. If you don't mind not having all the data on your MicroSD, reformat it.

    Alright i formatted it. Lol. Oh well. Just have to play all over again. Thx guys.

    Anyway, any good configurations for the Supero card recommended? Mine was set up by the shop dealers last time. And the Setup files were way too big.

    The configuration for the firmware? There's not much you can do with it.

    erm. got a problem now. i placed in my setup files. but i cant see my games. there seems to be 2 folders. but my NDS is in the folder with no games. and the instruction says, L+B to 2nd slot. which i try. i saw my files for like 2 secs. and the NDS changed to a blank white screen.

    Did you extract your NDS ROM so that it has the .nds extension?
