My SuperCard SD continually gives me the message "There is a DS Option Pak Inserted".

Any ideas on what to do?  It's worked for years, and now doesn't work in a DS or GBA/SP.

paper wedge behind the sd card??

yep.  still nothing.

My guess is that it's just dead?  I find it weird that it just died.

Though, it did happen to another cart of mine.  Maybe the powers that be are sending me a message.

If the Supercard doesn't boot at all then it's not the SD card that's at fault.  Somehow, the connectors on the Supercard aren't touching the GBA/DS slot correctly.
