Hacking ds lite doesnt recognize supercard

[davecazz]

I'm trying to debug my supercard and cant seem to catch a break.

I have a new US DS Lite and a Supercard SD. When the Supercard is plugged in, the DS doesnt see the supercard at all. Regardless of what I have on the SD Card, I should still get some kind of screen.

The only thing I see is "There is no GamePak inserted"

Any help would be appreciated.

What kind of passcard are you using? Also have you updated the supercard with the latest firmware?

i'm guessing there is no passcard what so ever or even flashed.

Even if theirs no passcard he should be able to play GBA games using it.

open your supercard, reposition the board inside and clean the contacts, then put it back in its case and it will work just fine.

I just tried to reseat the board and clean the contacts and still no dice.

I'm not even at the point where my passcard would be useful to me and can't update the firmware until the ds at least recognizes the superpass.

Maybe it's a defective unit. I bought it from http://shop.01media.com/ not sure if anyone else had any bad experience with them or if I just got unlucky with the unit I bought.

Was it recognized on any other ds? Is this the first time you've used it?

I dont have another ds to test and this is the first time I've used it. I just received lst thursday.

Try moving the cart around whilte its inside the DS. If that doesn't work then remove it and put it back in a few times. Anf inally try what lenselijer said.

I suffered with this problem for a while. I completely took apart the case and cleaned out the contacts and reseated everything but it still didnt work.

I purchased the supercard SD instead and it worked like a charm, I guess some of these cards might be defective.

What kind of SD card are you using on the supercard? It doesn't like a few SD cards I've found the small ones 64mb it doesn't like at all.

i was using a 1gb one i will try today to move around and that thing but its weird i tried in 2 nds and none of them worked =/

try holding start when you power up...if that gets you to the menu with the select gba game option
power off and add 1.63.bin to your mirco sd card
and update with that ()From gba mode()

That'd be quite the trick when the ds wont even see or boot his card.
