    I would suggest that you start by reading some of the existing threads. This problem has only been reported, say 20 times this week.

    You should probably start with this thread.

    Once you figure out WHICH R4 you have perhaps someone can help you.

    OK, first off, it's not R4 111. It's R4 III (roman numeral three)

    Find a post by Kittymat. (corrected. sorry about that) Look in his signature, he has a link to where the firmware appropriate for your flashcard can be found. Looks like the latest is 3.08.

    Upgrade to that firmware and the problem should go away.

    Hello - did someone call!!

    My signature has the link for the website mentioned - it lists all the flashcarts with the latest (and also older) firmwares.
