My supercard SD starts up but stops at the menu. On the bottom screen i see supercard DS. My SD card also works fine. This happened after I put my DS in my bag and I think I might have dropped it too hard. Everything was working fine before ... Till Now.




Blue DS
Flasme v6

I've seen this happen before.  Try folding a small bit of paper inside the SD slot to apply slight pressure on your SD card. It can't hurt to try. This is a sloppy example . . .

Sorry it doesnt help. But when I do the Supercard Test. It says everything Ok except this

Sd/MMc ok!       not find test file


I dont know what that means.

Supercard ver 1.62

Some liquid covered my ds with the supercard inside completely but I cleaned it all.
The Ds main menu also works and I can play DS and GBA cartidges perfectly.

So you dropped it and you drowned it if I'm reading this right.  I kind of think all bets are off on functionality if that is the case.  But in any case, can you still mount the SD card on a computer and see the files?

the Sd/MMc ok! not find test file error message is normal. You can download a test file to your sd card to test if it is correctly read. But it gives that error if you run the diagnostics without the file.

I can still mount the SD card on a computer and see the files. The Sd card works perfectly fine. And about the liquid it was a banana that got squished and dirtied the Ds and Supercard. I opend it to see if it was dirty and it was clean. Just the SC GBA cartrige handle was dirty.

so you can boot into the supercard menu, but then it freezes?  meaning, you can see the list of all the files on your supercard, but can't navigate the list?  if not, at what point is it freezing?

p.s. a banana?  lol...

I dont see the files on the top screen but the bottom screen says supercard DS. that means that the supercard loads but somehow stops.

ps. Yes a banana. Its stupid so thats why a called it a liquid.

Please answer the aforementioned question.

Do you SEE the files but cannot navigate?

Can you shoot a picture of what your DS screens show?  That might help us out to fully understand your issue.

This is the first time I've heard or seen anything like this if this is the case.

Thanks Everyone I fixed it. I opened the Supecard SD and cleaned the SC contacts with rubbing alcohol. And let it dry for a while. It works now. I guess the contacts were a little dirty from the banana.

Thank you for your help.

Ps: Before I only saw the SC DS logo on the bottom screen but nothing on the top. Not even the sc menu like : list, saver, options, help. That kinda of stuff. It was weird.

Thank you for your help.
