[boblen]

ok thats what you want a Write OK

[bruceg]

Yeah, there is a bug if you are trying to use neomax to write the menu software.  See the workaround here:

What original ds game cartridge are you using with your magic key 3??  Have you tried different ones as well?

i'm using nitendogs at the moment, the only other game i got is spiderman 2

[boblen]

ok wait.
Insert a DS game into your Nintendo DS without the Magic Key.
Go into Picto Chat Room A,
eject your NDS cart what color is the screens?

[bruceg]

It's not yellow, Boblen.  But what color is it exactly??  (if it's magenta, that's a new firmware also)

BruceG

[boblen]

If its green or blue then its good.

[supra21]

ahhh its purple is that bad?? can i get around it, please dont tell me i wasted £100+ on this

[boblen]

well thats your problam 
You did burn the Menu to the GBA flash cart but you have a newer DS which means you need a newer Pass?? eg PassKey 2 or PassMe 2

[supra21]

damn! ok where can i see some images of it and where can i get it from?

[boblen]

Where did you get your Neo-Key from?

[supra21]

http://shop.01media.com/en/ does the passkey2 have sd card support? because if not i wasted another £15 on a 512Mb SD card!!

[boblen]

No it doesent but.
You would have to Flash your DS with Flash Me.
umm this may not work out so good if you only have the Neo-Key.
you may not be able to put the flash onto your Neo-Key.

umm you could put the PassMe2 into your NDS then the Magic Key into the PassKey2 then on the SD card the flash me that may work.
go test now 

[supra21]

Is there a guide to Flash my DS with Flash Me? is it safe?

[bruceg]

There are several guides on installing flashme.

http://www.neoflash.com/forum/index.php/topic,1566.msg6022.html#msg6022

Also, the www.dspassme.com site has links to the flashme file and installation procedures.

Your main problem with the neo-key is that it doesn't have any SRAM space to write the required data (a gba flashcart is commonly used for this purpose).

If you do in fact have one of the newer firmware revisions that isn't passme1 compatible, you will likely need that passme2 device to install the flashme firmware, whether you go with neoflash or a non-neoflash product.

so basicly i wasted my money on the mk3 2006 because of the version of my ds, but another alternative would be to get an older ds and try it on that. I think that would be cheaper for me.
