do you use the 2.1 kernel on gei???
use the latest kernel on gei..
and in folder instead of ttmenu rename it to ysmenu...
it works.. for me..
to the dldi not supported use the ak.dldi and rename to dldi.bin then put in the G:/_system_/resources

@ harryen13

Thankyou for letting me know. I knew it was something simple that I had done wrong as to why YSMenu in my update wasn't working for GE/i...LOL! GE/i support will be readded in my next update

Its been a long ago since I visited here huh...
@[member='retrogamefan'], I can confirm that his solution worked with GEi...

Tested games so far...

0005 - WarioWare Touched (U) - FAIL (White screen after boot)
0022 - Super Mario 64 DS (U) - OK
0168 - Mario Kart DS (U) - OK
4171 - Mario & Luigi - Bowser's Inside Story - (U) - FAIL (White screen after boot)
5584 - Pokémon White Version (U) - OK
6042 - Pokémon Black 2 Version (J) - OK (yay! no more c-gear crash!!!)
6073 - Pokémon Conquest (E) - OK (doesn't work on native loader but it loads now with YSMenu!)

I'll test other games later and maybe homebrews as well.

@[member='harryen13'], where did you got the idea of replacing the dldi file of GEi's kernel? I thought that YSMenu only depends on its own folder (TTMenu folder) for dual boot.

@[member='[b][url="http://gbatemp.net/user/307956-harryen13/"]harryen13[/url][/b]']: I'll try it later... but some games on my micro SD doesn't work on YSMenu ATM so I might be sticking on dual boot. damn! why GE/i's file structure were so different among the R4 clones here!

Err....because it isn't an R4 clone?
I read somewhere in the internet that GEi is an acekard clone with R4 interface. And I think this flashcart is part acekard because its early kernels such as 2.1 uses an alternate AKAIO / Wood like loader.

I can't play Pokemon Conquest (U). I'm using GEi and updated with the latest kernel.
I use clean rom and AP patched rom but both still freezed. And then i installed RetroGameFan Multi Cart Update 6.82, tried the ysmenu but still got white screen. I downloaded the clean Europe rom, opened with native kernel and ysmenu, still no luck.
So please help me.. or maybe i should buy a better flashcart.. :(

So, if I wanted to update, all I have to do is extract and copy the lates extinfo, infolib and savlib dats over the existing flashcard files, right?
