If I try and run GBA roms, the DS whitescreens. Tried with three different roms.

I am using a NDS with the latest FlashMe, 1.61 Firmware on a SC mini-sd, and the 253 patching software with default settings

I still quite new at this, so can someone post some suggestions?

The card works running DS roms though.

first question (i know this is obvious, but i have to check):  are you patching your GBA roms with the patcher?

second question:  have you tried booting into GBA mode, bypassing flashme? They should work, even from the DS mode menu, but try booting up while holding SELECT.

Well, I feel like an idiot

I realized the games I was trying to play were not supported.

But now, I have another question.

How do you play DS programs over 256Mb (32MB)?

I noticed on the supercard compatibility list there are 1Gb roms (Resident Evil)

You just do, patch with the patcher :P
ilver DS with Flashme v.7
Supercard SD 1.63FW
512mb Kingston SD

You can't use ds Homebrew over 32MB's cause that's the amount of memory the supercard has, but even dslinux is still only 11 mb's you should not have problems there.

There are no GBA games over 32 MB.

For DS games there is an option to stream the game data directly off the miniSD card. in the patcher doubleclick the rom when it appears in the list and set "ROM Position Patch" to SD card.

Even with the SD postition patch, the files that come out of the patcher are less than 32MB.

I am missing something...

EDIT: For some reason, I found that it only works when I put zip files into the program. If I decompress them, It doesn't work.
