Hacking DSi error message

[lukands]

An error has occurred. Press and hold the power button to turn the system off. Please see Nintendo DSi Operations Manual for help troubleshooting.

This is the error message, is this what shows up when the console has 1.4.1 and the flash cart is only for 1.4

I of course would check myself but this is for a friend who doesn`t know how to troubleshoot.

I hope you have a DS LITE or a DSi that is running FW 1.4 or below. DSi FW 1.4.1 has new security measures in place to block flashcards. While there are updates for the flashcards that enables them to work on the 1.4.1 FW you NEED to have applied the Flashcard compatibility update BEFORE updating your DSi FW. For future refference, do NOT update your DSi to a newer FW until it is confirmed that there is a flashcard update that allows the flashcard to function on the new system FW.
