Getting a R4 revolution for DS to play games.

My kids have a ds lite. I purchased a new R4/4G revolution for DS kit. I moved a few games a freind gave my onto it and loaded into the ds game but it just said "Loading". I then downloaded the firmware v1.18 and put that on. The games still do not load. I keep reading about opening the firmware and loading two files into the root diretory. I'm using Windows XP. How do I do this? Please help. Thank you

R4 revolution ds

If you have a DSi with an R4 Upgrade V1.4 Revolution for DS then it is enough. If there is some problem while playing it or an any kind of error message then you should check it out again. But R4 3DS is a very good and famous game.

When you copied the R4 software to the SD card you either missed something or put something in the wrong place. This is the most likely cause of nothing happening when you turn on your DS. It's also possible that you are using an oder version of the software. Follow the link provided.

Nitendo DS lite how to play music using R4 revolution DS on my

First you need to make sure you have the current firmware for the R4 card loaded onto the micro-sd card. I know that some R4 cards only accept up to a 2gb memory card so check and make sure you are using the correct micro card with the R4. When you have downloaded the firmware for your card you need to make some folders. Label them games...movies... music... etc.. making a folder for each one. Put the Mp3 files in the correct folder. When you use your R4 you will see three icons at the startup screen go to the one labeled multi-media... Moonshell will run the movies/music... you are ready to go ... hope this helps
