    I've got this message a lot of times. It comes just as soon as the game has finished loading.

    The message says, "disk errorcode=-81

    Please reset system."

    The games it said on were: 1) Yu-Gi-Oh! Spirit Caller
    2) Naruto Shippuuden: Ninjustu Zenkai, Cha-Crash!
    3) Pokémon Ranger: Tracks of Light


    Can someone please help me?

    If you take the card out of your ds and start it up again, go into date and time settings and change the date back by a couple of days it should sort out the problem. I had the same problem with mine I reset the date and then it started working again. Hope this helps :)

    That's not the good way, [errorcode= -81] is caused by a MicroSD problem, take out your MSD, backup all your files and format it using Panasonic Formatter. That should do the trick.

    first of all do you have an R4 Original or a clone?
    And what firmware do you use on it!
    And what kind of MicroSD card do you have?

    Also try backup everything and format your card!

    Only 3 games had the problem, but where could I get Panasonic Formatter?

    I have R4-SDHC Upgrade.
    I use R4i-SDHC v1.23b.
    Well, my friend said it's a Toshiba.

    My card's format is FAT32.

    Your windows formatter and the SD formatter are different.

    Flash storage is different than your usual HDD, and the SD Formatter does a better job of formatting. It's all explained on that page.

    When it comes to SD Card related issues with flashcarts, it's always best to use proper formatting to avoid the issues.
