Hello,
I finally got my EFA 512 Simple and have been reading up on it for a while now, so I didn't expect it to be a smooth ride.
My current problem is I can only put ROMs up to about 230Mb on it. If I try to fill up the whole card, when it gets just under half full, the software jams in the erasing phase. I'm using version 1 of the client, I've tried loaders from version 1 and from 2.83 (DS and GBA loaders, makes no difference).
I've tried formatting the card, putting into different USB ports (currently it's plugged directly into the computer), installing both driver options oem5.inf and efasw.inf (I think) and I even tried using version 2.83 of the client software, which as I expected recognised it as a 256Mb EFA.
Any help anyone could offer would be much appreciated as I have done loads of reading, both before and since getting my card and I haven't come across this particular problem. Oh yeah, my PC has a VIA chipset and the games that DO load onto my EFA do work fine on my DS, with the GBA or DS loaders, I'd just like to be able to use the full capacity.
