Sure.
But being rude with 3 person trying to help, won't make the world better either.

Hiya, this is mokyurin.
Didn't you ever formatted your mediacard like this?

with Command Prompt.
FORMAT M: /FS:FAT /A:32K
(M: is drive name)

Allocation Unit with 32K isn't good for updating. just use

FORMAT M: /FS:FAT /A:16K

make sure you make backup of your card before formatting.

Hey now, lets all be nice :) Anyway, sometimes the upgrade will work with a  large card, sometimes it will not. Just have to trial and error. If it consistently does not work (even after redownload, and checking to be sure the CRC of the downloaded file is indeed good) then chances are you need to use a different card for the upgrade. I would recommend getting a smaller card either way, as that is what I use to test homebrew apps and games. Why cause unnecessary writes on my beautiful 2GB cards when I can beat up these 256 meggers? :)

Hi, I bought a 128MB Compact Flash and I Formatted both of my CF using 16K allocation system and it doesn't work anyway :/

I think that was a bad idea to purchase a supercard, maybe i should a buy another more expensive flashcart. :(

[EDIT]I also Tried to flash my DS and i get another message "NDS file is corrupt"

Well, maybe the files are getting corrupt on your PC end before they are even copied to the SC. You are not patching them, are you? If not, why not try another PC if possible. Could be anything...virus perhaps.

virus ?!? on my freshly re-installed system ?? Jeez, I hope not ! anyway, i'll try with a different PC and get you some infos.

[EDIT]Now, I know how stupid I am ! I know why the data got corrupted, that's because I'm stupid... I connected my Card Reader/Writer to my USB Hub so, the data transfers were obviously corrupted.

Thanks to all who reply this post, and i'm sorry to have been such a dumb !

Bye Bye !
