Warranty on Supercard?

markus · January 18, 2006, 02:35:03 AM

I'm having trouble finding info regarding the warranty on the supercard.
Has anyone ever tried to get one replaced?
My one gives me a "not find the SD. Please turn off GBA" once in a while.
Then I have to take out the supercard and plug it in again, and it's ok.
:?

i get that soooo much now (everytime i turn it on really) its so annoying, alot of time taking out and replacing the sd card doesnt work...i think the supercard isnt making contact with the sd card properly.

any solutions?

I had that with my SC CF.
Message came more often with time.
After a few days, whatever I did SC won't find the CF.

I bought another one and my CF work well now.
I don't know about SC warranty.

Maybe try using flashmp from http://darkfader.net/
I have a WiFi compatible card and I'll try as soon as i can...

Well if there's no warranty then I'll just open the thing up and take a look.
I noticed that sometimes if I just touch or move the SD card while it's still inside the DS it'll work.
I'm not expert with electronics, but maybe it's just the position of the supercard board inside the blue case.

Just wanted to make sure there was no warranty before I play around with it myself.

The Supercard team does not offer a firmware themselves, however, I'm sure there are sites that offer their own warranty, ALSO, if you email the supercard team, they might replace/repair your supercard if you send it to them.

So I sent an email to the guy I bought the supercard from, and he said he'll exchange it for me!!!

What a great seller. If anyone wants his info just send me a PM.

Maybe try disassembling the thing and clean the connections ?
