    http://www.r4cards.co.uk/shop/r4/r4-sdhc-card-for-ds-lite/7802 - this is the exact card I have - have tried using the Woods files, but am getting a blank screen or card error. Not very techie, so please bear with me! The site says "we only sell genuine R4 cards", so I assumed this was a real R4 - am I correct in this assumption? Many thanks.

    If Wood isn't working, then you have a fake card

    The latest version, 1.08 for Real R4s, works only on this

    You got a clone. Thats is a clone. Never trust websites that say that. Go on shoptemp.net

    This is a fake R4. I've got a R4 RTS which is also a clone

    Just been on line to their "live chat help" and have been promised my card is not a clone, but a real R4! Stumped now.

    Actually, instead of getting an R4, why not get a much much better alternative, an Acekard 2i or a Supercard DStwo?

    im 100% sure its a clone, R4DS original was not compatible with sdhc cards, try wood r4 for clones if you really want wood (not recomended). or get ysmenu, its the best firmware right now for clone r4s. or if you havent bought it yet, by acekard or supercard, both are good

    Anything with R4 in it's name besides this R4, is a clone of the original R4 cart.

    Why would you not recommend Wood?

    the clone version of wood is really buggy, its unstable, and does not support every game, ysmenu has a better compatibility right now, and is more stable. only on clones though, because if it were the original r4, then you should get wood, it works better then ysmenu.
