    Hi i just recently bought three things that i need a little help getting to work.

    1. M3 Mini Sd Adapter
    2. 2GB Mini Sd
    3. Passcard for Ds and Dslite

    Ive installed the latest M3 game manager and loader program onto my ds and yet it still doesnt show my DS roms in the loading screen. I can load my GBA roms just fine but the ds roms dont even show up. Can someone please tell me the steps to getting these two items to work together properly so i can load my ds roms.

    Thank you

    If the DS roms don't show up, it would think it is because your in GBA mode.

    You need to be in DS mode for the DS roms to be visible.

    Make sure the Passcard is in the top of the DS and the M3 in the bottom, then turn on your DS and it should load straight ot hte DS mode, where you can load the DS games.

    hey,

    just use flashme and flash your DS, and you will no longer be needing the passcard.

    cheers

    From what I've read, it's very easy to brick a DS Lite while attempting to install FlashMe on it. I don't think it's worth the risk.

    However, the DS is very easy to do, and completely straight forward, so I do recommend doing it on that one. I've done mine, and it works great.

    Thanks that worked. I just have a single follow up question is there a way to bypass and allow the multiplayer with games like Tetris and such were you can do download play with people that are at least 30 feet around you?

    If you are using a rom, the only way for people to use download play from you is if they have flashme installed, this is due to the fact that the rom no longer has it RSA security, which is what the reciving DS checks for when attempting download play.

    multi-card multiplayer is not affected, correct?

    That is correct, you can even do multicard play between a rom and a real game.

    What if you want to play SNES games on a Orginal DS? What do you need, where do you get it, and how do you do it, please?
