ok been pulling my hair out over this one...

console is DSI and card is "AceKard 2i"

16gb Micro sd card (formatted with suggested SD formetter software)

i have :-
AKAIO 1.8.9 installed
the latest AKAIO loaders
and update to v1.4.3 firmware

i've tried version
akaio 1.8.7
+ v1.4.1 firmware

i've tried the paper trick under the contacts but this changes nothing.

placed two roms on to test each and every time all i get is dsi works fine and card loads up yet the game menu shows but when you select game to play it freezes at any point from the white screen up to five minutes into the game..

i'm baffled and lost please help me someone..

i ahve looked around and searched various wiki, forums but lacking in anything to make this work, i've sent an email to ackcard but yet waiting to hear back..

1) You mentioned that you used the sd formatter, but was that recent? If it's been quite a time, you should format again.

2) Get yourself clean (unpatched) roms.

Does it happen on all of your game? Can you give some examples?

with the dsi off.......blow on the card connections and blow into the card slot then insert the card into the dsi but pull back slightly on the card so its not all the way into the slot....this works for me many times

You mentioned you are using a 16gb microSD so i assume you have a few roms on it,
does the problem occur if u only have a few roms on the card?

NEVER do this with your mouth. the corrosive liquid in your breath may damage the contacts permanently. use a can of compressed air if you need to "dust" your contacts or the dsi slot.

I'm not sure, but wouldn't that be a sign that your ak2i is having contact issues?
yes exactley....I thought maybe yours was also....did you try pulling back on the card after it has been inserted

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
