Cannot run NDS rom, clueless

I have the newer CF Supercard, a 512mb SanDisk CF card, a Supercard PassMe, and a Metroid demo cart. My NDS is a new refurbished I just got sent back to me from repair. The serial number checks out as being one that is compatible with PassMe.

When everything is plugged in and I started the NDS, I get the two white screens. If I leave the Passme/Metroid out until I'm in the SC loader, I try to run a rom, it loads, and then I'm stuck with one white screen. I've upgraded to 1.52 SC firmware, and am using latest SC game converter.

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong, or if I have something that is incompatible.

Do you know what firmware was on the Supercard before you updated to 1.52? If you had 1.50 on there when you upgraded then you should be good there, but Romman released a seprate 1.52 update for people who were still using 1.44.

It was 1.42, I believe. Wasn't aware there were two different updates: I went from 1.42 to 1.50, then to 1.52.

Hmm... I'd be a bit worried when you sent it in to be refurbished if they didn't go ahead and update the firmware to the anti-passme version.

Did you send it in to an official nintendo repair center?

Also, did you have flashme installed on it before you sent it in?

If Nintendo sends you a DS that is different in any way shape or form other than what you sent it to them for, you can sue them for another one that is the same as the one you sent them.

I don't want to go through all that trouble.

I'm gonna trade this in to Blockbuster, then go to another one and buy a used one.
