I just got my new ez flash III cart and its not being recognized by the computer. I downloaded the software pack at jandaman where i ordered it, and told my comp that that was where the drivers were but its still not recognizing it. Can anyone help me?

use my ezwriter.inf file attached here instead of the one in that comes with the installation download, unzip and copy and paste the attached ezwriter.inf file from the unpacked zipfile into the installation folder and overwrite the one thats in there ;)

then try installing again  :)


note the latest manager is ezmanger 2.22  :)

8 hrs is recommended before first use  ;)

led remains green until you start writing games to it :)

I recommend when writing games to the cart (u can do this whilst charging) using the settings of INSTANT SAVE and COMPRESSION  to get more games on and be able to save at anypoint when you turn off the ds/gba and back on it auto saves using these settings :)

compression packs the games down to fit more on but takes a few seconds longer to decompress :)

dont forget to FORMAT the card first and then write the EZ3 loader or it will not work when you try using it ;)

any more questions just ask .... I have 2 ezIII cards a 1gb and a 2gb :)

yea, i open the ez manager software 2.22  and it flashes green to red, is that good or bad?

does it allow you to format it ?

it should of charged fully by now so maby take it out and put it back in again see if you can format it  :)


Heffer101

well, i don't think it charged lol. I just put in my ds today and all it came up with was a black screen. I also contacted Jandaman for help seeing as it was there where i bought my cart. Is there like a guide on using it like a guide to the supercard?

have u written the ez3 loader to the card ?


what version is it 1gb 2gb ?

are you using the 2.22 manager ?


did you use the EZ MODE APPLICATION in the ezmanager folder to switch to EZ 3 when you have got the writer + card connected ??

heres an ezflash manual it shows you how to use both ezclient and ezmanager :)

did you try the ezmode application?

thats in the ezmanager folder ?


it needs to be set to EZ3 :)

double click it and choose EZ 3

also have you tried a different USB port ?

when you first insert the cart you need to format the cart insert the cart and click FORMAT and for the 2gb u need to choose 512mbit (this is the 2gb card size) format it then use system settings and write the ez 3 loader then try loading games  :)

If not try the online update then try writing the loader again  :)


Heffer101

i can't click format because the program doesn't find the cart... i have tried a diff usb port, i have tried the ez mode app the guy at jandaman walked me through it and nothing seemed to work, i did try the online update and nothing seemed to work... :'(
