HELP 'DS says not find the SD'

Help

I am new to the homebrew scene and have just purchased the following

Super Pass 2
Supercard to GBA adapter
2 Gb SD card

I have formated the SD card to Fat

I have transfered the latest Firmwar (1.62) .bin file on the SD card put it in the supercard and then into my DS (model No: NTR-001)

When I turn my DS on it says:-

NOT FIND THE SD
please turn off GBA

If I also put the superpass 2 card it then says this but on the top screen

Am I doing something wrong?

Also where can I find full instructins for the supercard and superpass2?

Many thanks in advance

Make sure your SD card is formatted FAT (FAT16) otherwise it sounds like it might be incompatible.

I have formated the card to Fat in windows XP

I have also used my old 32 Mbyte card

Also formated in Fat

I have done the sram test (Hold down the left and right shoulder buttons when you turn on the DS) and this is what it says:

Test SRAM
SRAM ok
Sdram ok

Test Flash
flash id ok!
flash ok!

Test SD /MMC
SD/MMC error:
error code: 03

Now SC version 1.60

Have you tried pushing the SD card further into the slot during operation to ensure contact?

The card is pushed in all the way (it is like spring activated) if you try to push it anymore it pops out

Push and hold it in. Turn on the DS. Check for the error.

It is your supercard that is making the problems. This probllem happned with me too. What i have done is i put a peice of paper in my supercard shell thingy to make it work. I would have returned to to where i bought it from. But im only 13 yrs old.....so my parents wouldnt do that for me....but anyways....i have scsd and i put a piece of paper so where the supercard has contact with the pin on the ds is slightly farther. My problem was that they were to close....funny thing is i fixed it yesterday...lol
