hi, im not sure where to post this, but i can post somewhere else if wrong section...
any way ive got a 3ds xl with the hard mod on it and im trying to restore my nand backup that i made a while back via the GateWay method, only problem is i have the blue screen of death now and i cant restore via GateWay anymore.
I do have the hardware mod installed and it reads and writes just fine on my laptop, but it simply wont fix the blue screen.
My nand backup created from the gateway card is in .BIN format do i need to change this for it to work the micro SD mod?
What is the booterror code that you get? and when did this start happening? Did you install the mod yourself, if so you might want to check that nothing is being grounded. If it reads and writes just fine it might be an issue with the system hardware at this point and not so much the software.

Before you downgraded did you back it up a couple times and check if your backups are okay?, based on size and a simple hex look. Also did this bluescreen start happening when you restored the other firmware? When I have seen corrupted images the system just hangs on a black screen and won't boot. I'm not sure about this though, if you have a back up of 9.5 you might want to try and restore that, if it still is a blue screen you might want to look at your eMMC mod.Yes i installed the mod myself,
what happened is i inadvertently updated to firmware 9.5 so i felt i had no choice but to re flash the nand via the hardware mod, from previously created Gateway backup, but instead of having it downgrade now i have BSOD lol, just a paper weight, i was not happy with myself!
Eh so I donno anything about that card reader, did it work before? Your pinout on the SD card adapter part looks correct. The two that I use are the Anker® USB 3.0 and TekRepublic TUC-300 Card Readers. Some of the others I have tested have controllers that work sometimes or work for the 3DS but not N3DS, or a different eMMC and not another.

So after what handling blue screen appeared ?!?
1. Do you have modded your console after updated it in 9.5 or before ?
2. When you have modded your console, do you have tested it first with wires not connected to USB reader to see if your console switches on normally ?
3. When you switch on your console, the blue screen appears instantly or after 2 seconds ?
Hmm I have the sames setup. Are there any specific drivers that you use? I am using the generic one that Windows 7 auto installs. Here are some photos of the card reader and SD adapter.

Also i cut the bridge on the SD card as i noticed it wasn't reading in my laptop before i did that.... im not sure if that was the right thing to do or not
So the blue screen was happening after you updated to 9.5 and before you installed the mod? I would be a bit worried if this was the case because this might point to hardware failure somewhere. If the bluescreen was happening after you installed the mod then it might just be a mis-connection somewhere. I take it you cannot boot the system normally when the mod is not connected to anything?i only used the gateway backup method for the nand, and ive upgrade then downgraded via gateway a couple of times now just for the sake of testing, so its unlikely to be a corrupted file.
Also the blue screen only happened when i tried to downgrade via SD mod After mistakenly upgrading to (9.5) and unfortunately i only have the one Nand backup file which is (4.4)
2. cant do that test as was blue screening before mod

You finally used an XL instead of original 3DS
I'm glad you could fix your writing issue.
I would have tried writing before updating, just to be sure the mod was correctly done. it's less scary.
