hmm, this is bad, i'm using acekard 2i but not akaio, i'm using the acekard2i official update, without patches and hexes, i could only go up until after choosing the game's difficulty then black screen comes up. i use hex then but it only runsd up until he wakes up and stand then again, black screen. i tried the xdelta patch but no good, still runs after he wakes up. my other dilemna is that i don't want to switch from my acekard official to the akaio because i had my dsi updated to firmware 1.4 (the thing that bricks carts) so if i use akaio, i would have to format my cart which means i'd have to erase the anti brick thingy so i'm thinking if i put in my akaio `.5 which is not yet updated it would mess up my cart. help guys please. argh
