Does it work atm without cleaning?

Put some Isopropyl Alcohol (Isopropanol/Rubbing Alcohol) on a cotton bud and wipe it lightly over the contacts. Wait a few mins for it to dry.

Ok i will try that when possible.

To Bluelaserman, yes it does work.

Why clean it if it already works?

Sorry forget to mention. I use to experience (Use to 'cause who uses an R4 when you got an acekard 2) freezes. I was a noob at this kind of stuff back then, now im taking a guess at contact reading issues. From a look at it, the contacts do look a bit dirty (Greasy lol), so i thought ill clean them, then look uo the paper trick, then try that.
