Hello all,

    Well, first the problem...  To test it, I used the original cheats (that comes with)...  I tested for about an hour Castlevania - Portrait of Ruin...  Not even the intro cheat menu showed up (so you'd guess none other did!)...  Just like if it wasn't there at all...  Then, I thought why not try another game!  So, as many had success with New SMB, I try it too; and it worked...  Go figure!

    The question I'd like to ask: Have any of you tried Castlevania PoR?  Does it work for you?


    To not too that I tried both trim and untrim...  (Even thought New SMB trim work the same but it's a test I've done anyway!).

It worked fine for me.. there seems to be no explanation so maybe a full fat format may help if you haven't already tried

post back if it works as it may help others

Well, good, bad and ugly news...  

Let's start by the ugly and bad news...  It seems that my folder "NDS" in my microsd card has some problem with cheats and roms, who knows why?  So, everytime I putted a cheat in NDS, it didn't work...  But, I tried putting a test folder in NDS and New Super Mario worked in it...  Go figure!  Anyway, I just copy/pasted my castlevania from from NDS to ds and it seems to fix it right...  (That's the good news!).

The bad and ugly news?  I don't understand why at all!!!  If you do, please tell me!!!

too many files ?? maybe fat has a limit ... also did you format ?

I think it has a limit of 64 items at a time? so three files for each game if you have 22 would be over that.  Not really sure though, I am a tech n00b

FAT file structure has a limit as mentioned above its always best to put the games with their savers in their own folder  eg  GAME1.NDS GAME1.SAV  in a folder called GAME 1  etc  and put the cheat file in there too so it keeps the relevant games and saves and cheats in their own folders ... I find it less messy this way anyhow
