    Horray for the DS!

    Hacking MicroSD to PC I get "Parameter is incorrect"

    I have had the same problem, but I have not been able to reproduce it reliably. I have been using the card reader that came with the R4, so that could be causing it.

    Hacking All i get is a Loading... Screen.

    Make sure you plugged your card writer into a USB 2.0 slot and/or use a reliable card writer... the included one is iffy at best. I also had this problem with the Loading... screen (on my R4). I fixed it by reformatting the card (full format, not quick), and ensuring the micro SD card sat well...

    Hacking Reliable Canadian online store with Simply?

    Email them and refresh their memory... mine mysteriously shipped the day I emailed them. Go figure.

    Hacking Reliable Canadian online store with Simply?

    At least it is a Japan Toshiba card (unless of course it is a knock-off), instead of a Taiwan Kingston. Seems to work ok, everything I have tried has had no problems running.

    Hacking new R4DS not working

    Once I got everything running, I did put Moonshell on and everything works fine now. However, my PC did fuss at me about the included card reader (it wasn't recognizing my USB port as a 2.0, but once I plugged it back in that error went away). Hard to say what the real problem is, but I would...

    Hacking new R4DS not working

    I just got my R4 today, and had the same problem. Then I copied just the files (1.06) needed to boot the card (not the moonshell folder) and it worked fine. EDIT: I also had the "can't find card" error because my SD card wasn't in all the way. Maybe just putting the card in and out a few/many...

    Well, my R4 finally arrived today from Sky2k... with the wrong micro SD. They put in a Toshiba 1 gig instead of the Kingston I ordered. Well, better than nothing I suppose.

    Hacking Reliable Canadian online store with Simply?

    This stuff does indeed come from Hong Kong, despite their website saying they are based in Toronto. They just emailed me a tracking number for the Hong Kong post office. Ugh. I will certainly not be dealing with Sky2k ever again.

    Hacking Reliable Canadian online store with Simply?

    Oh man, then it is coming from overseas... that could mean duty (however, we already were charged GST). This was so not worth it!

    Hacking Reliable Canadian online store with Simply?

    I was under the impression they shipped from Toronto, but who knows with this operation. I recall somebody saying they got something from Sky2k and it had been shipped Canada Post, so I would think/hope it is Canadian. Plus the shipping charges they charge seem a bit low for a package from...

    Hacking Reliable Canadian Online site with M3Lites and R4?

    I would suggest avoiding Sky2k... quite a few of us are having trouble getting our orders from them.

    Hacking Sky2k?

    I am underimpressed with my order (R4 + 1 gig Kingston) with Sky2k.. been two weeks, but they claim they sent it yesterday (and only after I sent them an email about it). No tracking # though. I am giving them till the end of the week and then I am calling my credit card company and having the...

    Hacking Reliable Canadian online store with Simply?

    I was told yesterday that they had shipped it (after I sent them an email asking where it was). However, I didn't get a tracking number either, and my order on the website still shows processing. I will give it till the end of the week and if it doesn't show I will call my credit card company.

    Hacking Reliable Canadian online store with Simply?

    Well, been a week and a half here waiting on Sky2k. Thinking I will call my credit card company and have them cancel the charges and go with a more reliable/reputable dealer and pay a bit more for it.
