I'm trying to flash ntrboot to a Gateway blue card. My 3DS version is too high to flash the card, so I'm using my dsi to flash ntrboot to the card. Since I'm using the DSi to do this, I used the dsi.nds flasher, but there isn't an option in the menu to select my card like with the normal flasher where I can select Ace3DS+ which can work with Gateway blue. Would I have to use a different flash cart? I have an Acekard 2i but I can't get the DS to boot it. My DSi is on version 1.4.5. Would that mean that I can't use it?

What's wrong with your 3ds?

If I can't use the Gateway card I could try using the Acekard2i, but I can't get it to work with my DSi. Can Acekard only work with systems 1.4.4 and under?

I managed to flash ntrboot by switching to Acekard2i insted. I had to install Ulauncher for it to work with my DSi which was a version to high initially and I was able to install Boot9strap to my 3DS.

The only problem I have right now though is how slow TWiLight Menu++ takes to load on my DSi. Is there a way to make it faster or make my DSi boot to the normal stock OS? I don't want my DSi to be stuck with this ridiculously slow speed.
