1. Wrong section. I already sent in a report to have this moved to the right section.

2. Back up your microSD card and reformat with this program
http://filetrip.net/...ows-f27344.html
Using these settings.
FORMAT TYPE : FULL (OverWrite)FORMAT SIZE ADJUSTMENT : ON

3. Download akAIO from filetrip and copy "akmenu4.nds" and "__aio" to the root of your MicroSD card.

4. Last you need to download and flash the firmware with the latest firmware from the official site (This does not work on the latest 3DS firmware though)
There is a guide on how to that as well

Everything should be set up!

Please type in proper English. I am not trying to be rude with that suggestion, I am actually having a hard time reading your posts.
Most likely your Acekard 2i was not updated to the latest firmware before you got it. So you will need either a DS (Lite or Phat) or a DSi (XL) to update your Acekard 2i to the latest firmware.

i put the caekard in2 my dsi (xl) and im still gettin error message is there somethin im forgettin 2 do? I followed the steps:

1. Format sd card
2. download akaio "i believe its suppose 2 be version 1.90"
3. download firmware update "i believe its suppose 2 be the latest1"
4. Put files in2 root of disk "basically i went my computer/removeable disk and put it right there"

just a question catboy do i need the loaderchangelog and readme's?

No, the update needs to be run on the Acekard itself because the update is applied to the Acekard, physically.

hmm could some1 just send a zipped file of the fully updated file so i can stop be annoyin
That's not how it works, it updates the Acekard itself, so you need to run the update file from the Acekard. No way around it.

moonshell is a multimedia player for the ds. it will play .dpg video, mp3s, allow you to view various images, text files, etc. there are even ways to make it run .nds files.
