It is more than likely a problem with the menu, best waiting until 0.6
Try trimming the rom though, that might help.

just one mk3.i am waiting for mk3 stand-alone-the first one on divineo us-about 91.00,pre-ordered for about 3 weeks now!!
Maybe you can help me,i was thinking about changing my order to the mk32006 kit,but i was thinking the mk3 was not as good.anyone know?

trimming the rom wont help,it wont even detect the sd card.this is making me feel stupid because it shouldnt be happening.
at this point i really believe the bleach ds rom did something to the kingston sd card to make it not be detected in 0.4.
tried reformating cart,tried two carts,detects in 0.5,but not 0.4.sandisk cards detect on both.

still flashing re in 0.5.ZZZZZZZZZZ

Ahhh, I get you now.

So let me get this straight -
Menu 0.4 has stopped detecting your SD card
Menu 0.5 DOES detect it, but it doesn't save well and that's why RE:DS doesn't work.


Try formatting the SD card in FAT (not FAT32).

RE seems to work as well in 0.5(Speed,no crashing)for me as 0.4(no saving).its just reallly wierd that my kingston is dead to 0.4.

i really have been too afraid to get too deep into any one game or anything,because of reported saving issues.0.5 seems to have about the same compatability(at least to flash and run roms)as 0.4 for me,so im in the same boat as before,with a newer menu.no problems i guess,for now.

0.6,0.6,0.6,0.6,0.6-i mostly want to make sure it detects the kingston card.i have several sandisk cards,but none larger than 128mb,ie no RE in 0.4-which i didnt try\dont guess i could have saved in anyway,so as i said,no big loss for me.ill use 0.5 and not even hope to save-for now.

Roger,

I hope .6 menu works with your Kingston SD card.  What you described seems very strange.  You flashed the Bleach ds rom succesfully from the SD card to the neoflash cart, right?  It's when you went into the neo-cart menu and booted the rom from there, that your screen flashed white, and the Kingston SD card wouldn't be detected anymore upon re-boot, correct?

I'm assuming your Kingston SD card is working fine otherwise for non-neo applications, is that right?  Wish I had a 1 gig cart myself to replicate what you did... then I might be able to assist further...

Exactly as you described(0.4 though-did not have to exit to mk menu)

Still the same situation,card works fine with 0.5.As well as it did in 0.4,anyway.so is ok for now.thanks.

it seems to me now that maybe i tried that rom(bleach)before,heard the"click"("pop"maybe),and didnt have this trouble.

i know there is nothing we can do to get it here any faster,but im dying to know if the sd card will work with future menus(0.6 :))are we talking weeks or months?

If your cart works with 0.5, it'll almost certainly work with 0.6

yeah,im hoping.0.5 seems to be working maybe even better than 0.4 for me,so thats a good sign.

still,its really weird though.i think the mk3 itself has some form of data written to it stopping it from reading the sd(kingston).the card works fine otherwise,including in 0.5.,and all other cards work in fine in0.4.oh well.
