    Anyone know if this fixes the problem with Picross 3D not working on YSMenu? I had to re-downgrade to the 1.18 firmware just so I could play it...

    And n00b question here, do I just need to REPLACE all of the files in my SD Card folder (bar the games and save files of course) or simply add them in? Thanks in advance. :D

    I'm using Vista and don't know where my "Run" is, it's not on my Start Menu. :(
    Plus the X (my drive) would the be the drive my SD Card's plugged into?

    Press windows key and R to get the run dialog ;) You don't need to use CD either, just E: (for example)

    Hmm....
    [Right Click> Rename]
    for those that use windows 3.1 and newer.
    [Right Click> Properties] Uncheck the "Read Only" box if the file is giving you grief

    Not working unfortunately, I try typing "D:\ (the drive of my SD Card) and it says it's "not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

    I try typing "cd D:\" but that just brings up a new line...and finally, tried typing "D:\ ren *.sav *.sav.nds" which says it's "Syntax is incorrect".

    I'm stuck. >_<

    Ok, so I've had one problem, I've added the latest usrcheat into the cheat folder but when i load up the cheat option on my r4 there is just an empty "misc codes" sub-menu, any thoughts?

    Just type:

    D: then enter

    Then do the rename command.

    Thank you very much! I tried it and it is working great! The only bad thing is that you have to change all *.sav files to *.nds.sav files - and I have A LOT of save files -.-" Thanks again!

    iw1990, just do a batch rename as explained in this thread.

    Also if you want to backup all your saves at the same time you can do:

    copy *.sav C:/ (or wherever you wish to copy them).

    In the end I just manually renamed all of my .sav files, works like a charm with (almost - NSMB seems to have lost it's save, no biggie) every game I have. :D

    Even when the firmware wasn't working properly, a manual rename prevented it from wanting to create a new save at least. On the plus side, I have the firmware full functioning now, and this is a major upgrade.
