My ez flash game cart was working fine yesterday but today has developed a problem, ebery game I try on GB/GBC/GBA all give the same read save error?
I have tried formatting the sd card and starting again, I have also tried another sd card but its the same.
It says I am on fw 7, kernal 1.07
Does anyone have any ideas on what I could try next. ?
Thanks

Try cleaning your SD card's contacts and your SD card slot's contacts with some isopropyl alcohol.

If you use a newly formatted SD card and the same error occurs, this is not the usual said of SD card corruption.

Can you provide a screenshot of the directory tree of your SD card. files and folders.

Hi, thanks for the reply.
I did have a few games in each folder but last time I reset it I just put a few in.
I have tried formatting the sd card to fat, fat32, exfat.
I am on fw 7 and K 1.07
Any help/ideas would be great.

Please follow these steps:
1. ensure your SD card size is 4GB-32GB
2. format it with FAT32, 32KB file allocation unit size.
3. copy one game rom to the SD card root folder.
4. ensure there is no other file and folder on SD card except the only one game rom
5. boot up console and run the game with "DIRECT BOOT"

check out what happens next.

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    oh you mean the 3rd party apps on Kodi, yea i know what you mean, yea there are still a few cool ones, in fact watched the new planet of the apes movie other night w wifey thru one, was good pic surprisingly, not a cam

    Damn, only $2.06 and free shipping. Gotta cost more for them to ship than $2.06
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
