Alright, so I bought an R4i Gold from nds-card.com, paid for it and all went to plan. It came in the post today, so I patched it all up and put the newest Wood R4 firmware on my SD from the website. I copied over some of my roms and homebrew, but none of them load. When I select them, I just get the black screens with the white Loading text on the bottom. I can't load any of my commercial roms, or any homebrew either.

Any ideas as to what's wrong?

Go to the properties of a ROM when in Wood, and it should display the CRC/32 (it's important you check the versions on the cart, not the ones on the PC), and compare them to the ones here.

If they're all mismatched, then your files are being corrupted and/or cut off when transferring, meaning the MicroSD or the reader you're using are faulty.

Right, I just checked with Rune Factory 3, a game which worked fine when I was using this SD card with my AK2i, and the CRC I got was CE94D7FE, where as on the site I was given B423F7FC. I'll try transferring it over with the method I used to use, instead of using the USB adapter I was given with the flashcard. The MicroSD should be fine, in theory. I was using it with the AK2i the other night no problem.

What's the website on the sticker of your card?
What's the game icon showed on the screen when you power your ds on?

Have you updated your card?
What's the game icon showed on the screen when you power your ds on with this card inserted before updating?
It seems that you have used the wrong patch.

R4i Gold 3DS(r4ids.cn) should be as follow:
The PCB is inside the shell:
r4igold3ds.jpg

Just click help menu in WOOD and you should get
r4igoldver.JPG

Just have a look and have a check.
It seems that you have not got a genuine card if you have not updated your card.
If it is this way, just contact the online store where you bought this card from and request exchanging a good one.
