I got my new Acekard 2i today, and i already have problems with it

I can't press the start button on my dsi or on the acekard 2i because it makes the acekard 2i freeze and i have to restart. This means i cannot soft reset, which is annoying

The theme is also all messed up, the bottom screen being plain black and the top plain blue. Im using the default themes on the card, yet because of the earlier mentioned problem (no start button), i cannot change my theme to see if it's just my theme

As i said, my Acekard 2i is brand new, has the AKAIO 1.5.1 menu, i have a European DSi (v1.4e) and have flashed the card with the fix

Can anyone help, or is it faulty?

globalsettings.ini is located right under the _aio folder.

The line you wan't to edit is uiName = SkinNameHere

You will wan't to change that skin to one you know that works, by typing the exact name of the folder into that line.

I do not have the globalsettings.ini file fullstop. Do you know where i can get ALL the files i need for my acekard 2i?

EDIT: I just re-downloaded the AKAIO 1.5 files again from the official Acekard website and there is still no globalsettings.ini

The Global settings file gets created by itself when you first boot up your acekard for the first time. Your card could be corrupted, meaning as it does not create global settings.ini.

You may have a faulty acekard.

Something seems to be very wrong with your acekard, especially since there is no GlobalSettings.ini. That file is required for a lot of functions on the AK to work, such as changing skins and going to start.

Heres a link to the latest AKAIO 1.5.1 firmware.

The GlobalSettings.ini file should be packaged along with it.
AKAIO 1.5.1 (Linfoxdomain)

If that file disappears every time you reboot your Acekard, that means that either.

A. You have a faulty/bad MicroSD card, or one that is corrupted (Get everything you can off of it, and reformat it with the Panasonic SD Formatter. Choose quick format, and if that doesn't fix your problem try full format (It will take a long time, I can assure you that much)

Again do not worry about the notice at the bottom, I have downloaded this nifty utility time and time again and have never been infected, its just in case you have one of those overly sensitive Anti-Virus programs

B. Your Acekard2i is faulty, which means it needs to be replaced.

I will need to get it replaced, because before i used the acekard 2i in the fist place i formatted it, using full format, so i cannot see it being the memory card
