    There's a website memorybits.co.uk They have an R4 Zone which has advice on setting up your R4. Hope this helps.

    Have a look in this link www.memorybits.co.uk/r4
    There is a download for the R4DS Ultra SDHC, might do the trick.

    Other option is to go to the link mentioned by Kittymat where there are downloads for all the various versions of R4 cards, hopefully one of them will work.

    It really depends on what version of the R4 card you have, but there's a help site (and believe it or not, there's no buy buttons on it!) at www.r4dsrevolution.co.uk that gives downloads for I think the original R4 card and also one of the ones that accepts high capacity memory.

    They have a help guide or two that may solve your problem - at least I hope it does!

    Hiya, I've read through all this and can't find anyone with the same problem as me, hope someone can help. I'm useless at this technical stuff!

    I bought an R4DS Revolution V2 + 1GB MicroSD Card from NintendoDSR4.co.uk. No disc came with it so I downloaded the kernel v1.18, unzipped the files onto the card and created a folder called Games and moved games to there.
    When I turn on my DS I get the R4 screen, I can then choose the Game option and select the game I want. Sometimes I get the wee intro to the game or the option to choose the language etc and then it crashes. Bet there is something stupid I have missed. Help!

    unfortunately for you V2 is not the original R4 it is a clone, it probably requires different operating firmware (1.18 is for the original R4 not V2) look at the site in my signature and there are 14 R4 softwares to choose from, try to locate the appropriate one, if it does not work - format the SD card and start again with a different one

    Cheers Kittymat, I've emailed the website I got it from to find out which firmware I should use, just waiting on them getting back. Dont't really have the time or energy to go through all the types on the link you gave me but a huge thanks for the link though, if I psyche myself up maybe I'll have a go.

    Hang on. There's definitely clashing information here!

    Right...

    - R4v2 (it is not the ORIGINAL R4 in the sense that it no longer has a spring Micro-SD mechanism, but it CAN take the original firmware)
    - R4 SDHC
    - R4 Ultra
    - R4v3

    are DIFFERENT CARDS. First step first - recognise and remember this! :)

    Secondly, for the R4v2 or the R4 SDHC, the latest firmware should be available from http://www.R4DSRevolution.co.uk.

    widget10, send me your email address and i will sort out the problem your currently having. If you send me a private message, no one will see your email unless you want them to view.

    When you send me your email, please let me know what code you have on the back of your DS. Does it start with a 'UG' or 'UE'. This does make some difference as there are different bases for the DS.
