This is really weird..... i was working on refining a theme's backgrounds, buttons etc (made an improved version of the "Elemental Blue" theme from ndsthemes.com) so in the past hour or 2, i found myself swapping a microSD card several times between the PC and the acekard.
So few minutes ago i inserted the SD card into the acekard's (NON-springloaded) SD reader, and booted the DS Lite. There was an error reading reading the card - it displayed as empty, no files or directories. So i took out the acekard and noticed the SD card in the reader seemed loose, so i tried to push it a bit further. The SD card somehow bounced out of the acekard and landed under my desk, like 2 meters away. I took a flashlight, found the card, picked it up, and tried to re-insert it into the acekard, but the SD reader seemed broken, there was something blocking it inside or i don't know what.
I know this was probably a bad idea, but anyway... i pried apart the acekard with an exacto knife, took out the PCB with the sd card reader, hoping i could examine the SD reader to see what was wrong. I tried the card into it and.... wtf??? it seems fine but it's spring-loaded now????? Anyway, i reassembled the acekard the best i could with some tape and tested it in the DS. It works fine!!!
... so, right now the acekard is in my DS lite, working absolutely fine, there seems to be no problem with it. But for some reason, now it magically has a spring-loaded SD card reader. It's also held together with scotch tape for the time being :3 :3 .....weird!!!
