Hi there everyone, My wife has bought a DSlite for my daughter, I have bought the following for it,

A Supercard DSlite microsd

A 1gb micro sd transflash card

A Max Media Laucher

I have a couple of dvds of roms (nds.dsq and nds.sav files)

I keep getting white screens, bear in mind I dont have a clue what I'm doing :oops:

I've had a search, and after spending about 3hours looking I'm loosing the plot. I know its problably easy and I should be able to find the answer myself but I'm lost.

Thanks for taking the time to read

hyster, welcome to scdev!

You have a nice wife and a lucky daughter!

It is possible that you have roms that were not made for the sclite. I will pm you with an "idea" about that. You need to have clean roms to use with the supercard patching software.

1. Make sure your microSD card is formatted FAT(FAT16). Right click microsd card and choose format.
2. put the max media launcher in your dslite.
3. Download the latest software Here under downloads. Choose the correct one for your sclite card (if rumble series get that, if not get the non rumble series).
4. put the file .bin file for non rumble and .scu file for rumble onto your micro sd card
5. put memory card in sclite and put in ds.
6. after booting up, choose the .bin or .scu file and say yes to question. After complete the supercard will have the latest version of firmware. turn off and take out microsd and put back into the pc.
7. Now you are ready to run the setupmicrosdV257en.exe (or rumble version if that is what you had).
8. After installing run and choose open and put in your roms you want. Afterwards you will have two files with romname.dsq and romname.sav, copy these to your microsd card and put back into your sclite and start playing.

This should get you started. When you are up and running with it all working, check out the tutorial on moonshell on this site under tutorials. It plays movies and mp3's, your daughter will love it, mine did.

Hyster, glad it worked out! Are you giving it for xmas? Trust me, you will be a star in your daughters eyes, which I am sure you already are.

Make sure you when you get it all worked out check out the moonshell tutorial, the screen is clear with it and bigger than the ipod!
