Major problem with the new firmware

Ok, so I got the 1.52 Firmware installed. I used flashme to flash my ds, so I don't have to have the superpass everytime I play ds games.

Here's the major problem - According to the website, the games are supposed to run in 1 to 2 seconds. Well none of them are. Also, I STILL CAN'T SAVE PROPERLY WITH THE NEW FIRMWARE! I was expecting the firmware to fix this problem.. I'm 100% certain that the firmware was installed properly, because everytime I turn back on the DS, it tells me if I want to upgrade the firmware version from 1.52 to 1.52 (At the point where I haven't deleted my upgrade.scu).

Could anybody help me? Oh by the way, my supercard's CF, and I'm pretty sure I downloaded the right one..

I think that you may have made the mistake that many of us have when we first tried it.

When you use the patching software double click on each of your roms and check which options you are using.

Make sure you are saving and loading from SD/Flash.

Just a quick thought - have you installed the new conversion software?  I don't think roms converted with the old software will work with the new firmware (although i haven't tested that myself).

I've got an SD and I'm having no problems (well, I AM having slowdowns, but I think that's because I have a slow SD card)

Did you make sure the game(s) you tried were compatible?

If not, go ahead and do so.

Oh damn.. I forgot to patch the roms with new converting software...

There is a problem though, all my roms are NDS.DSI extension. is there a way to patch the roms in that extension without using the original .NDS extension?

No :(

Just so you don't make the same mistake again, when you download them again, don't delete the original files. Just find a nice corner of your harddrive to store them because I highly doubt this will be the last time the format will be changed.
