Well i recently acquired a M3 SD from a friend to use on my gba, however when i put in the M3 it just gives me a black screen after thee GBA boot screen. I formatted the stick in there but the same would happen. Also at time it gives me some Chinese words with Secure Digital in between the words but i dont understand the error, it just tells me to press START. Can someone help me, cause i want it to work but just dont know why it isn't. I can post a picture of the error if anyone needs it.

I think it says: No proper SD Card inserted, Press START. Atleast that's what I recall from the english message I sometimes get.

You didnt upgrade it with the CompactFlash firmware I hope?

I use a sd adapter in my EZ-4 Phat

Highly doubt that's the issue

Did you format it correctly?

EZ4 Is Fat16
And im sure M3 Is as well

Suggestion's
1.Make sure SD is in firmly
2.Window's Trys to set fat32 To default Re-format and make sure fat16/Fat is selected
