I am having problems getting my superpass to work.  I have tried metos and supermario64 in my superpass.  When I turn my ds on it shows the health and safty screen and then immediatlly boots into two white screens.  I have updated my firmware to 1.52 but to no avail.  What am I doing wrong?  If I don't put my superpass in then I can play gba games off of the supercard.

Super Mario 64 DS doesn't work properly as a boot cart. Try nearly anything else, particularly the Metroid demo.
Manually signing your posts is dumb.

Firmware versioning: Get a Passcard 3, a SuperKey, or a slot-1 flashkit. Then it doesn't matter which firmware you have.

I have tried Metos, Nintendogs and Super Mario 64 which are the only games I own.  Does it matter that this is the nintendogs version of the nintendo ds?

yes! it matters.  that version of DS has the new firmware.  you can't use a normal superpass or passme on it.  You need a passme2 (or to reprogram the cpld of your superpass, which i doubt you want to try)..

Then, supposedly, when you install the latest flashme, you will be able to use your normal superpass (or flashme itself) to access the GBA slot in DS mode.

There is a lot of info on this in the forum.  search for key words like "new firmware DS" etc...  you'll find a lot of discussion on it.  check out dspassme.com to find out about passme2 and how to get it, or how to update your own passme.
