    Try removing and re-putting the MicroSD card back into your R4. Tell me how that goes. Also try and use a different MicroSD Card with the R4 Firmware to see if it works if you have one.

    That happed to me once.... Coppy all your games and save files form your R4 and put it into your computer.... Then format your SD card and re-download the kernel from the website.... Put back your games and save files in the R4 and it should work again....

    Format your SD card and that should delete everything.... Then coppy the same files onto the SD card.... Delete all the other stuff.... The ones you dont need

    Try turning on the ds with the R4 first to see if the problem is gone....

    Did you extract the RAR file? If you have a 'english' folder on your MicroSD you haven't installed your firmware properly. Take the separate files and folders within the english folder out and have them on the root (base or first directory/place) of your MicroSD.
