Hacking Golden Sun Dark Dawn

[lawrence]

I get two black screens when trying to load the rom on the 4gb card, after searching the net i found that it doent load on some SDHC cards so i tried the 2gb card and the rom ran smoothly. so my question is there a patch or a fix to get this rom running on the 4gb, and i know that card and rom is good because all other roms run off of the 4gb and the rom is good cause it was tested on the 2gb. also i have searched for a patch or fix myself and have yet to find one. the next best thing i hear is to wait for AKAIO 1.82

edit same as post number 4: i have formated my card with panasonic micro sdhc formatter, and the file system is fat32 the slow way, the hour long way, i would think i have a class 4 because grand thief auto china town wars works on the same 4gb card that golden sun wont work on, but to be sure is there a way to check what class card i have? and all my loaders are uptodate with the download, since they let me play pokemon black and white

Setup
R4i Ultra / AKAIO 1.81
Golden Sun Dark Dawn robotkiller dump (something like robot kill)
Anti-Piracy enabled
4gb/2gb sandisk micro SDHC card

it is a class 2 card

If your 4gb card is one of the older ones, check if it's not formatted to FAT16 (Standard FAT) file system. If so, it is using a cluster size that's not widely supported (64kb).

This error is generally caused by differences in write and read speed between the card and the original cart.

I suggest updating your loaders, formatting (slow) the card to FAT32 with default cluster size and trying again.

No fix for that.
You need Class 4 or higher SDHC card. Class 2 is too slow to many games incl. GTA and GS.

( I've got 4GB Class 2 SDHC and Golden Sun wont run - black screens . 4GB Class 4 works great with GoldenSun -AP Enabled and GTACW. Remember to Format Fat32 )
