Hi, I just bought a new ndstt and load the latest firmware from ndstt.com and put one game to the root of my microsd card. When turn my DS lite on, it turn on and stuck at the Loading (very first screen) and stay there forever. Does anybody know why it does that and how to fix this thing. Newbie
You need to download the latest firmware, unzip it, and put the file TTMENU.DAT and the TTMENU folder (along with its contents) on your microSD card. Then make a folder called "games" on your microSD card and put all your .nds files in there. Then use the "safely remove hardware" option to remove your microSD card from your computer, place the microSD into your DSTT, and place the DSTT into your Nintendo DS. Turn it on, and you should see a list of the games you put on your card. Select one to play it. If you have done this and it still does not work, take out the SD card and try the TT card in the DS on its own - if working it should come up with No card. If it does then reformat the SD card NOT with windows but with Panasonics SD formatter (use google to find its free!) reload the files and try again.
I did exactly what you said, but I still stuck at the Loading screen and doesn't go pass that screen. If I put the TT only in the console, I got the no DS card. I did try to reformat the microSD with Fat but still got the same error. I'll try the Panasonic reformat tonight and see if it work. Thanks for helping out.
reformat card or delete the kernel and reinstall it, some errors i cleared when i put the dstt in the ds without micro SD and turned on till you get the no card symbol, turn it off put micro sd card in (keeping the dstt in the slot at all time dont remove to put micro sd in) and turn back on and it cleared alot of problems on alot of the cards
OK, Here're all the steps I did, but still fail and stuck at the Loading screen (very fist screen). 1/ Format my 2GB SD card with Fat16 and put the latest firmware from ndstt.com site. 2/ I make a folder on the root calls games and put one game that I know it work on my M3 card into this folder. 3/ Put the TT into the console without SD card. I got the NO CARD screen. 4/ I put the SD card in without removing the TT from the console and turn on my DS. I got the Loading screen again and it stuck there. I'm not sure if it's because of the TT or the SD but I try 3 different SD card and can't get pass the LOADING screen.

I did check with ndstt.com site and my card looks legit. Anyway, I'll ship back and try to get another one. thanks for all your efforts try to help me out.
it must be faulty i have had alot of them all my friends got me to order them and occasionally one or two froze when trying them for them with a known working micro sd card, as long as you downloaded the lates kernel from ndstt.com unzipped it in the eng folder there are TTMENU folder and a file called ttmenu.dat if there on the card and nothing else you should be able to boot to the main menu on a working card full guide on this site http://www.ndstt.biz/ndstt/how-to-use-dstt.html#setup
