This problem only started occurring recently, my 3DSXL original model would boot up but go to a black screen, so I tried different things like putting in the SD card after the system was turned on and I think it worked after that but froze again while playing pokemon Ultra moon.After playing with it for awhile again trying to figure out what was triggering the freezing I realized it only seems to be happening when my DS flashcard is inserted. Iv'e had this flashcard for years and never had issues with it causing my 3DS to freeze.
So the other day I inserted the flashcard after my 3DS was already on and my 3DS hung and froze, so I tried again and this time it looked like it was going to freeze again but didn't. So today I was playing animal crossing on it and put it into sleep mode and when I went to take it out of sleep mode it had the blackscreen/freezing problem again.
Does anyone know what could be causing this? I could be wrong, but it seems to have to do with my flashcard as when I boot my 3DS without it it boots fine, but if I insert it or have it in the 3DS before turning it on my 3DS will freeze?
