Hacking Ds won't detect acekard2

[Prons]

Our DS Lite won't detect the Acekard2 anymore, it used to be we could get it to work after a couple system resets, but now the DS won't detect it all, even after taking the acekard 2 out, taking the sd card out, etc. etc.

What can I do?

Clean the contacts of the ak2 and try blowing the ds out

Try to blow in the DS. It may help.

That, or maybe put a small piece of paper next to the Acekard 2 when you insert it then turn it on. That's how we fixed it on defective SCDS1s awhile back, so it's possible that it could work here too.

A bit of an update, it semes to work great unless a game crashes. Like if a game freezes and we turn the ds off, it can take a lot of effort to get the DS to recognize the cart again.

Any clue?

Try setting it to Automatic Mode in the settings, it might work.

Automatic mode is to automatically load the last rom u fully loaded the last time and no that wont solve the ds not seeing the card

Reference this

Before our issue worked itself out, I considered warming the card up and placing it between a couple of hard cover books with weight on top so the plastic housing would cool off straight. Making passes over it with a hair dryer is probably the simplist way to control the heat. Take your time gradually building the heat up and checking the housing by feel. I would try to keep the heat directly off the exposed copper contact as well as keeping the label side facing down. You may want to put something between the dryer and the card such as a thin, dry wash cloth.


And I'm assuming you reformatted the sdcard, these things get corrupted a lot easier than a hard drive.

Blow on the contacts and try putting a bit of paper behind the cart.

Thanks a lot guys, I told my brother your guy's suggestions, and I haven't heard any complaints or massive cursing since then, so I guess it worked
