    Hi
    I have bought a R4 SDHC card and a 4GB micro SD card. I have downloaded the Firmware V1.22 Kernel onto my computer. However, on the R4 website it says : How to update R4 SDHC?
    After downloading and decompressing the new updated files, there will be one moonshl folder and two files _DS_MENU.DAT, _DS_MSHL.NDS.Copy these files to the root directory of TF card to replace the former files
    Er.....what? how do i decompress??? and where would i see these when i have done this. It says this should be easy as you just 'drag and drop'... but i haven't even got to this stage yet!!!
    Can someone help - as i want to install games for my daughter for Christmas.

    once you have downloaded the file, on your computer it will be stored as a .zip or .rar file.

    If its a .zip (taking it that you are using wimdows) right click it with the mouse, this will give you a load of options, one of which should be extract, use this to unzip the folder, then you should have the files that you want.

    If its a .rar file then use google to download winrar and use this to unzip.
