Hacking Loading Screen?

[lilg_stryker]

This problem started today. Whenever I start up my R4, the black screen that says loading comes up, right? well, it does, but then It doesnt actually load anything, all it does is stay on the loading screen.

help?

try blowing on the R4 card or like push in and out the micro sd.. always worked with the N64

 

[lilg_stryker]

I've already tried that, and no luck.

Maybe your MicroSD got corrupted. Can your computer recognize the microSD ?

 

[lilg_stryker]

It does but the computer is really, really slow when I try to view the files

 

[Icarus]

Probably something happened to your MicroSD. Try to backup your files first[even though it's slow]. Then format your card. That should solve the problem.

 

[lilg_stryker]

ok, might take a while, though...

 

[lilg_stryker]

darn it the thing isnt responding...

If it's giving you such a hard time, then just format it without backing up the files, unless you really need them.

Edit: Also, you might want to try the reader that came with the R4 as well as the microSD's reader. And I know the problem is with the microSD, but just to be safe, turn off all other programs running on your PC before you try again.

One way how you can try to recover important data from a corrupted sd card is by putting it in a sd card reader and running "CHKDSK /(sd drive letter)" in Windows console.

Using a digital camera, reformat the card, or reformat using Windows if you don't have a digital camera. Download a trialware called "Final Recovery". From what I've heard, it recovers files from reformatted cards.

I wouldn't place any guarantees on this, but its your best bet.

Hey, thanks a lot forr the Final Recovery thing, I'm going to look into that. If I can only save some of my saves, I'll be really happy and I'll reward you

Tried and doesn't work =/ The camera can't format the card either. I also tried some other programs too but no dice.. My micro SD is officially dead. Thanks A-Data -___-

I got that loading forever error too, turned out it was my R4. So I just bought another and all is well!

My R4 is fine, it works with some other MicroSD. I'm just waiting for my new Kingston from Dealextreme. Gotta be here sometime this week..
