Hacking M3 Real - No System File Found, although everything is in

[triforcemario]

I decided to dig out my old M3 Real card so my girlfriend could use it on her DS Lite, and I'm having an unusual problem. I downloaded the M3 Sakura firmware from here, put it in the micro sd card (SYSTEM in the root folder), and created a folder called NDS for the DS roms, but whenever I turn on the DS, it claims that there aren't any system files... I even tried downloading the firmware off the oficial website, with no luck. It's a European card, and when I used to use it about a year ago it worked perfectly without a hitch. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

try formatting the card...search google for "Panasonic Sd Card Formatter" without the quotes download it and format the card then reinstall everything the way it should be. Get the system files from here: http://down.gbalpha.com/GBalpha/Softwares/M3SAKURA_M32.zip and place the SYSTEM folder on the root of the micro sd and place everything else where you had it before....you may want to head over to the Alternative M3 Firmware forum located here: http://gbatemp.net/t268715-alternative-firmwares-for-m3 and download WoodYS if you want to play any games that came out within the last year or so.

If that doesn't work you may have a clone card and simply put the newer firmware might be blocking it...try using an older firmware from around the time you last used it and just install and play your games from WoodYS.

Just extract the SYSTEM folder and Copy the folder directly to the micro SD Card.

I just found my old DS after years and I'm having the same problem. Thing is, I do not know anything about those kind of things. Can somebody please explain everything step by step in simple terms? I am also using an M3 Real. Also, is it possible to recover the save data that was on the card or will I have to reinstall everything?

The posts above are already simple and step by step.

Is there something specific you do not understand?

Also, is it possible to recover the save data that was on the card or will I have to reinstall everything?

Do you see anything on the SD card when you connect it to your PC?

Like I said, I do not know anything about anything. That includes things like formatting or connecting a SD card to a PC. I discovered this site and created an account hours ago to fix a problem you all seem to know how to handle. I am not particularly tech-savy and am extremely scared I'm going to screw everything up if I start to improvise without very specific instructions.

You figured out how to find this message board and make a post, and somehow figured out that you have an M3 Real. If you got that far, you can probably figure out some of these other things too.

That includes things like formatting or connecting a SD card to a PC.

How did you set up this card in the first place?

You might be better off finding someone to help you in person.

It was my father who set up the card. As for figuring out it's an M3 Real, it's just written on it.
