Default any one know where to find info etc on "R4ds" carts ? or do you know ?

basically got one of these for the kids and im fooked if i can get it to work lol

its a cart that opens up the nintendo DS so you can listen to music and view pics etc via putting them on a mem card and then putting them in a R4DS cart . also ive put on the files ive been told to copy onto to it . the system file and the moonshu etc

but know the ds just has loading on the top screen of it ??

so then i thought id done it wrong and put just the R4DS in the DS and turned it on just to see what happens and it still comes up "Loading" ?

im guessing the R4DS is fake etc ??

any one know about these or know websites that could help ??

contacted the company i got it off and aint heard anything from them . Dicks !

Have you copied the system files to the root of the micro sd?

i think so . whats the root ?

i click on " computer" and it brings up all the drives etc and removable drive "e" , which is the mem card

i then double click on drive "e" and it opens the card . it say the device is empty , so i then pasted the system files there , then the moonshu , then the other 2 files , then create a folder called games . i then dropped a file in the games folder .

so now when you double click on the drive "e" it opens and theres 5 folders , the 4 i downloaded and the 1 i made as games ?

is this right ?

remove the 'games' folder
put the files in the root with _ds_menu_.dat and _ds_mhsl.nds
thats where all roms and mp3s etc need to be IIRC

when you say root , do you mean just copy them to the first bit that opens when you click the card to open ?

so i need to open the removable device , and then copy the 2 files and 2 directories to that place so there is 4 items . so if i double ckick and open the card then i can see the 4 items ? does that sound right ?

i not sure if i know where the root is ?
