Hacking M3simply freezes at loading

[darkirby]

What trouble shoot says, to format your card and try loading everything up, tried that and it failed, still stuck at loading
then i tried with a clean formatted card (it should say "can not find firmware" or something along those lines)... nope

so any other suggestions? I don't want to waste money for another M3S/R4 if i can just get this one fixed...


also, I didn't know if I should put this in the R4 section or M3 adapter. I chose here because the M3 is basically an R4.

Try putting the firmware on the card...that's most likely the problem. A format and then adding the firmware will most likely solve it, I haven't heard of M3/R4 cards malfunctioing themselves.

I tried that as well, when i put the firmware on my card it still just sticks at the loading state.

Try the old blow trick by softly blowing into the R4's card slot? Just don't do it too hard or you might damage something. Worked for me once when I was freaking out over a card error.

Yeah I get this on the odd occasion on my R4 and as Akamai said blowing in the card slot on the R4 sorts it out, although I usually blow on the contacts on the R4 and the DS port as well for safe measure.
