Button combos not working while in DS game

I just got my SuperCard CF, and I have everything working fine - except I can't get any of the menus to pop up once I am in a game! I enabled saving in the patched ROMS, of course, and am using the latest versions of everything.

When I try to press L+R+START+SEL, nothing happens, L+R+B+SEL, nothing happens, etc etc. If I want to get back to the menu I have to power down.

What am I doing wrong!

Those button combos only work in GBA games.

So how do I save a DS game, or get back to the DS menu? Does saving just.... save like a normal game cartridge would?

Yes, Most of the DS roms will save to the CF card, providing you are using the latest firmware.  Some games done save (check compatibility list) you can save using an original game with the same size save.

Have fun!

Fantastic! Is there any way to get back to the programs list without restarting the DS?

Not currently, no.
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.
