This is the card:
R4i_r2_c4new.jpg

I keep trying to download from anywhere. This was the last one I tried: https://www.r43ds.org/pages/R4-3DS-Dual-Core-New-Firmware.html
Whenever I insert it into my DSI (1.4.5) it keeps saying 'An error has occured. Please turn the system off'

Does anyone know where to find the correct kernel update? I bought this card around two years ago but haven't used it since.

Don't run that kernel as your primary since it has a time bomb.Use this https://filetrip.net/nds-downloads/...rogamefan-multi-cart-update-v7-03-f33204.html Look for sdhc and put all the files on root of your micro sd card,then put this r4.dat on the root https://gbatemp.net/attachments/r4-dat-zip.44557/
i didnt think this version of R4 used r4.dat, but instead _DSMENU.dat

That gives me an error still. And I think it does use DSMENU.dat.

Errors as well. Maybe I should format and try it again. How should I format it? (FAT, FAT32, etc)

Try renaming the r4.dat to _DSMENU.dat then.If that doesn't work then I guess its a different brand then I originally thought it was.

Yes fat32 if it isn't already.

I believe this is the one you want, I have the same one and this is the one that works for me http://web.archive.org/web/20130917...4isdhc-white/2013r4isdhc-whiteEnglish1.52.rar

Which year is at the sticker? Or is it just "New"?
i need help with this issue too, i have a r4 card which has the label new on it , no specific year.
but it is an old one from 2012 perhaps, it says system file is missing for me!!

let me know what i need to place in my mSD, it works with my blue GW card but i have an issue with that gw card ejecting so i want to use this r4 card instead (it used to work just fine, not sure why it suddenly gives me that system file is missing).

Downloading the kernel again might help: https://web.archive.org/web/20130807210454/http://www.r4isdhc.com:80/download_white_new2013/
