Wow, you should never use that obsolete firmware. Get Akaio! http://filetrip.net/f9222-AKAIO-1-5-1.html
Download http://akaio.gbatemp.net/nloaders/ and put that in the loaders folder. Then drop all of that in the root of your MicroSD card, then drop all your games and save files into the root also. (Root: The first thing that pops up when you put in the SD card)

EDIT: http://www.akds-forum.com/index.php?PHPSES...&topic=74.0 and use that so it works on DSi
which one do i load

AK2/AK2i loader ?
how about __ak2?

I don't have this folder "__aio/loaders" directory on my card

Was your AK2i ever working in your DSi, or have you just updated the AK official FW to v4.21 and you are now getting the black screen with "an error has occurred...."?

Incidentally, I was getting that screen message when my DSi (already running 1.4 FW) was not udated with the FW fix (replaces the AK icon that of the Danny Phantom game). This icon cannot be varied/changed, and indicates the update was successful.

If your DSi is running V1.4, then this means it is blocked from using flash carts, and you need the 1.4 fix

I have just bought my dsi.
what files should i load into acekard2i?
what are the steps?thank you
TTaken from the sticky topic (look at top of AK page)
Welcome to the guide on setting up your acekard 2i - New tutorial (Easy to follow steps):

1: You must first download the akaio firmware for your acekard located here: http://filetrip.net/file.php?id=6570
2: Unzip the file that you just downloaded using 7-zip. Download and install the program, now right click on the akaio 1.5 .rar file and click "open with" and select "7-zip". If it doesn't show up, select "open with", then select "choose default program", then hit "other programs" and select 7-zip. Now double click on the file, click extract to, and extract it to your desktop.
3: Now plug your microSD card into your computer, a window should open up, and select "open folder to view files". Drag the __aio folder and the ak2menu4.nds into the window that just opened and let them go.
4: Now since the firmware is on your microSD card now, you need to download the latest loader for akaio. Go here: http://akaio.gbatemp.net/nloaders/ to download the file. Once downloaded, use the same method of extracting the firmware in step 2 to extract the zip file that you just download. After its extracted, put that .nds file into /__aio/loaders on your memory card.
5: Now you need to update your acekard 2i to work on the DSi 1.4 firmware. First download this file: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=LFK8DOZB
Now, extract the file to your desktop. There will be two files, one with dsl and one with dsi in the file name. Use the DSi file and run it on a ds light to update on, Drag the file to your microSD. Now boot your acekard, locate the file, and run it. Make sure you have a good battery life left or your ds is plugged in before you update. Hit the the A button, and it will start the update process. After that it will be ready for your dsi 1.4 firmware.
6: Your done! Start pirating! erm...... playing your legit backup's!

If you are unlucky like some of us on here and find the AK2i update file (found in the Megupload link) will not work, in that it hangs on 0% progress, then grab the R4i 1.4 FW fix DSi file from here http://www.r4ds-ds.com/Kernel/d/r4ifw_update_14_DSi.zip and try that on your AK2i (it worked for me and others on here too).

Firstly, does the AK2i appear in your DSi (with AK icon), but when you select it you get the black screen with the error message "an error has occurred..."?
If so, did you follow the steps and run the DSi file on a DSL and it progreessed through the update to 100%. If so, that's the extent of my assistance. If it didn't update (ie. hung on 0%), did you try both the AK2i DSi file and the R4i DSi file on the DSL?
