I'm making a new topic for a new problem,.. I put my minisd into the cartridge and get a  "No sd card found". So i read some topics on this forums. I found that if i put a little tape on my cartridge port for the minisd to problem is gone. Is there a way to fix this? do i have to bend the pins up. or should i just leave it with tape? thanks

I get the "not find the SD" message sometimes. Re-inserting the miniSD seems to fix this problem.

I would like to know if there is a permanent solution to this minor annoyance.

I think the pins aren't making proper contact with the slot...my 2 cents...Haven't experienced it yet myself.

I guess theres no fix? The tape trick works okay for now.

I had the same problem.

Try taking the sd card out of the supercard, then insert the supercard into the GBA slot, once its in properly, THEN put the sd card in.

Where abouts are you putting the tape? Is it possible to put a piece of small paper to fix this like the solution for the SD super card?

Sorry for blurry pics. camera suck. here are some pics. I use blue painters tape, easy to take off the tape. i made it about 4 layers. works perfect now.

Ah you put it behind the mini-sd card so it is pushed against the contacts?

I put the tape inside the Supercard's mini sd slot, about 1/2 an inch inside. Not on the mini sd. if I put the tape on the mini sd cart, I can't get it in the card reader.
