    I got this Nintendo DS Fire Card oversea, had some games preloaded. I was able to see it from Windows explorer at first. However, I tried to delete the games and reload more games, I guess I deleted some important system files. Now when I have the fire card in Nintendo, I see white screens on both with Error: "Open fat error!" When connect via USB to PC, PC suggest me to format it. I tried to format it by pressing down "Start+Select" or "Start + Select+A" (without connecting to PC). Nothing happened. Any suggestion is appreciated.

    yes, you deleted the xmenu, you silly sausage.
    .
    only FIRECARD in DS
    select + start 'while the firecard is booting' should bring up the format menu.
    choose 'quick format'
    put xmenu back in (right click.>.>.send to.>.>.removable drive X.>.>.& you should be ok.
