Okay, at first sorry for the noobish guestions...

I got today my brand new DS, Superpass, Supercard and Sandisk CF 1024 card. Feeling brave still at this moment.

I have superpass at the back and Supercard with CF card at the front.
I can access the menu where I can start flashme.nds (v5), but nothing happens, top screen just turns white and thats it! I tried running roms, but nothing happens, same white top screen. Feeling stupid.

Superpass firmware version is 1.52 and windows app 2.42.

So, I'm a bit confused!
1. I don't have any games to insert to superpass, should I have one? There is nowhere mention about that in any flashme guides!
2. Is my DS so new that the firmware is new and does't work with superpass, should I have superpass2? Serial is starting with NEM101*****, where I can check if that's "too new" DS for superpass.
3. What should I do after I can stop crying?

If someone could answer these, I would be eternally thankful! Thanks in advance (wars)!

1. Yep - you need a game the first time you flash. No way round it I believe. After you've flashed it you can remove the passme and just leave the game in. It's still needed to boot. Although you can remove it now after the SC menu has loaded to save on power.

2. Dunno - not looked to be honest. The official site might be more help than me - http://www.dspassme.com/

3. Hopefully play some games once you've been on ebay or wherever to get a game

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, 'cos I'm no expert.

And good luck. It's worth it

Oh honey thanks!

Prolly I'll just rush to the store and get some game.. Feeling totally stupid, but there was really not mention in any guides that you need one original game with Superpass...

The metroid demo also works, if your system came with it.

i suggest you get nintendogs, i have no problem booting a majority of the games. of course the few ones that come now and again but alot of em suck imho

woo! Now it works! I bought Advance Wars and that is also totally great!

Thank you very much!  :lol:

I thought that I shouldn't have to have the superpass and game attached to ds anymore, but I cannot get roms to work without. Am I missing something?!

You must hold ABXY when booting, with only the game (no superpass required) in the slot.  Hope it helps!

Damn... too easy. I think I have read that somewhere, but I didn't just remember it.

Thanks again! I think I'm not ready yet to graduate from Supercard school, but at least I'm learning!

even if i press ABXY when booting i cant get games to work with just  a game attached  i just get white screens
but i works fine with the passme2 & game in
