After updating, I tried running LEGO Indiana Jones: The Adventure Continues (It wasn't on the list and I owned it, so I thought I might as well try). The game works fine other than music repeats and long transitions, but my question is, is it normal for some games to be constantly using both screens for one display, swapping between the two and other uh, strange effects? I notice this only on the opening logos and save menu. I'd just like to know if this is a common occurrence.

Try setting clock speed to NTR.

Sounds like it's an SDK 5 game. Those can't save yet, unless you have a donor cart inserted (a cart with the same save chip). Using a cart as a donor cart will delete the save on it though.

Trying to figure out launching DSiWare. I have the games' folders in SD:/Title/00030004/* , and the .argv files pointing to them. In SRLoader, the games are labeled correctly and have their little animated icons and everything looks great.

But, when I launch any of them, the screen goes black, then white, then fades into the "An error has occurred. Press and hold the Power Button to turn the system off." screen.

Any idea what's up?

Do they launch outside of SRLoader?

There's your issue. They have to show up and be launchable from the regular DSi Menu, in order for them to be launchable in SRLoader.
I see. Sorry, I figured that if it could bypass the title limit of the main menu, it would get past whatever's making the system delete the files, too.

I don't suppose you'd have an idea as to why it doesn't work in the first place, would you?

Your .tmd is probably incorrect.

That was it. Every guide I'd read pointed to an archive of TMDs labelled to match each app, to be renamed and put in the "content" folder. I just got one from NUS Downloader, and now everything's running as it should be.

Sorry for taking so much of your time, and thank you for putting up with me.
