Sorry I'm not exactly sure what you're asking... What exactly happens when you load the cart, just white/black screens?

What generally helps fix most issues loading flashcards is:
  1. Reformat the SD card using SD Formatter
  2. Download the kernel from the flashcard archive, extract everything from that 7z file to the SD root

Try that and see if it helps, if you have anything important on the SD back it up before formatting but maybe don't restore it right away and see if it works with just the fresh kernel.

Maybe it's broken and the "Games" are not clean on the Card...is it only a Cartridge?

Is there a MicroSD Card in it?

Backup all Files from the MIcroSD Card (as mentioned before), (If there is any card in the Cartridge)...make a screenshot from the content of the SD Card and post it.

Sorry to say, english is your language but you can't explain yourself accurately. What does "It loads the Ace3DsPlus Menu it just doesnt show any files until I eject the card" mean? Do you mean that you don't see the specific flashcart icon in the DS menu, instead if you don't insert the microSD then you see its image? Just the opposite of what happens with my flashcart....

A few months ago I bought a flashcart similar to the one on eBay (ace3DSplus unlabeled + microSD 16 GB with four hundred and more roms, with Wood [GBAtemp Edition] menu).

Strangely, if I insert the flashcart into the slot without the microSD, the game icon (Deep labyrinth) does not appear in the DS menu.
The only flaw is that the microSD does not make good contact with the pins on the flashcart, and sometimes I have to try several times before it works.

Also in your case, I suggest you try several times to insert the Micro SD and see if it will work.
Before formatting the microSD, see if it is read by the PC, via SD-reader, without problems. If yes, then this is not what the problem is about. Otherwise, format another microSD fat32 with 32kb cluster then recopy the firmware files (already in the other one) into it.

    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.

    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
