    Hi, I just ordered a DSTT, did't get it yet but when I do I want to know what is the first thing I should do. I probably want to install firmware on it, right? And if so how do I know which firmware to install.

    Thanks in advance guys, I'm new at this

    Sorry for the double post, but what is the biggest memory card that the DSTT will support?

    the software does not damage the ds it damages the cart, for the newest dstt and dstti drivers http://gbatemp.net/index.php?download=4477 it can manage up to a 16gb Micro SDHC the moonshell 1.71 player on the ndstt.com website you can play movies music view pictures with, http://dilldoe.org/NDS/index.php?name=Default&d=Default0iPod0Skin&c=lgadani&r=none lets you turn your ds into a i pod with interchangeable skins, want multiple backgrounds http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/769519, anything else you need just ask

    thanks so very much for the reply.. so when you say it can not damage the ds itself but the cart what you do mean?

    I want to research this more I don't want my chidlren to be upset if I ruin their machines

    if you run the original software on an original dstt cart it will run fine, the clone/fake dstt cart looks almost identical if the original OS is run on it the fake killer code will disable the cart from working, the three files in the gba temp link dump, flash writer, flash checker can be deleted as they are for repairing a fake cart after the flash killer has destroyed it, as dstt don't want other companies profiteering of there work

    everyone has different opinions i like the dstt for the ds and dstti for the dsi, they suit me look good as far as im concerned and by the time i sent this message loads of people will tell you loads of contradicting stuff i bought them of www.focalprice.com because i do not like buying from www.dealextreme.com because of problems where i never got my money back, which again someone will disagree. lol R4 were good cards so im told but 24 different versions were brought out all of them fake

    i use a dstt and my wife and son from focalprice.com and alot of people in work wanted me to get them for them no one has has a ds damaged 1 or 2 struggled setting it up and the card froze, but resetting the software sorted all the problems out, movies music pictures and games fine had mine several months ago no probs, i guess its like everything else with these machines some have had probs some have not, i work in a big place and at least 50 cards were ordered my work mates moan alot, but no one has moaned to me so far.
