I got my card, installed the software on my PC and added my GBA roms to it, i goes throught the process and then I move those files onto my SD card and they play on my Micro.  I tried the same process for NES Roms but the games dont work.

What am I doing wrong, is this the righ prcedure?  

Also, how can I view JPGs and movies on it and play MP3s.

Nes roms just put them on the SC with out going through the patcher.  only nds and gba roms go through the patcher.  Go into the SC folder that is in C: program files folder. you will see a NesFileName file.   Copy that file and then use that file for your nes save file.  Name it what ever game it is for for example zelda, make sure that it stays a .sav file.
In the download section there is a media player

Thanks, that worked for the NES games.

I also got the movie converter and GBA movie player to work.  I was also able to convert some JPGs but dont know how to view them on the Micro.

Any tips on this or overall you can give me?  BTW: how do I check what firmware is on the supercard, do I need to upgrade?

Hold L and R  and turn the power on  "hold L and R untill after the gameboy logo disappears".  You will enter a self test mode which tests your SC to make sure that everything is working properly, press the A button to begin each test and then at the end it will say the firmware version.  I think there is 4 different tests so you will have to press the A button 4 times before you will see the firmware version.

I think you view pictures "JPGs?" with the movie player

mario24601

No go...movie player will not view JPGs...I still cant get anything to work...nto a big deal, I dont think I will use the Micro to view many pics just thought it would be cool, I have a hx4700 for that and movies.
