Hi all,

I've had an EFA Linker II 1Gb for about a year now. And as of about 2 months ago, a lot of stuff won't save anymore.
When I load up A Link to the Past/Four Swords, it tells me all 3 saves are corrupted and won't let me start a game. Super Mario Advance 1, 2 and 3 all tell me the save is corrupted and won't let me do anything. However, Rhythm Tengoku saves just fine.

Anyone have any idea what the problem could be? I've tried leaving it plugged into the PC via USB to charge the battery but that hasn't worked.

OK THIS IS EASY

YOU KNOW WHEN YOU PUT IT IN AND THE LIGHT TURNS GREEN

WELL JUST LET IT CHARGE FOR 8 HOURS

TO MAKE IT CHARGE JUST MAKE SURE THE LIGHTS ON GREEN AND LEAVE IT PLUGGED IN

DONT HAVE TO OPEN ANY THING

GO TO BED AT 8:00 WAKE UP AT 8:00 AND ITALL BE DONE

THAT EASY

(I HAVE ONE TO)

I'd tried charging it but I didn't even know the light went green.

Edit: Left if on for 12 hours overnight and the light is still red. =/

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I rarely do this, just because it really isn't necessary to me personally. And also, the clock batteries in the Wii do last for quite a long while.
