so i haven't put games in my r4 for a while and i tried it like i used to a few months ago and when i uploaded games into my r4 and try to play it in my nds it keeps saying "unable to access backup memory. turn power OFF and re-insert the DS card" to all the new games i put in
Upgrade your R4 firmware to 1.18 for the R4 original. No use talking about your problem until you've done/verified that.
i dont really get what that means.. like i turned it off and took the card out and put it back in? and it says the same thing!
i went to the r4 site and downloaded the 1.18 file and i dragged it into my ds but i dont know why it still says the same thing.. did i do somethign wrong?
You will need to have the WinRAR program to extract the files from the kernel package www.winRAR.com Using WinRAR, extract the 1.18_kernel package to your PC. Put the microSD card into your PC using the microSD card reader/adapter. Back up (copy) all of the files on the microSD to a folder on you PC. Format the microSD as fat16 Copy the following files/folders from your PC to the ROOT of the microSD card. _system_ (folder) moonshl (folder) _DS_MENU.DAT (file) _DS_MSHL.NDS (file) Insert into the R4, insert to the NDSL, and you should get Moonshell to boot. Your Kernel/moonshell have now been updated. You can eject and put the microSD card back into the R4 to test it now or copy the games from the backup folder back onto the microSD.
