Yeah, old software like this would only run under Windows XP. Try setting up a virtual machine perhaps.
Here's the proper software for Flash Advance Linker Xtreme. You need Windows XP.
And I dont think the EZ Flash III carts work with the Xtreme linker.

Surprised how Gameboy-Advance.net still exists in 2023. That site's been up for years.
That's not the linker for that cart. You're after the EZ-Writer II that came with the EZ-Flash III cartridge.
The software and drivers are buggy af, only run on Windows XP, and the ROM writing fails more often than it succeeds.
I had this kit, and hated it so much that I didn't care how "rare" and "collective" it was, I did a straight-across trade with a Temp member on here for a (white MiniSD version) EZ-Flash IV. I was, afterall, just after a working GBA solution.

I love my Omega DE. Flush fit and easy to operate. I have the EZflashIII, but haven't touched it in a while. I have to whip out my XP laptop each time I want to manage it and the battery has "run dry" ever since forever.
I still only have the original EZ-Flash IV that's white and takes a MiniSD adapter to microSD. I wanna retire it to my Gameboy Player.

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -

TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
