DS Flash Equipment > Solution for GBAMP : CF card not formated

#114473 - BLKGHOST - Mon Jan 08, 2007 6:29 am

I may have found a solution for those who keeps getting the CF card not formated eror message. It seems like the pins don't make a proper contact in the DS. So I opened the GBAMP and added 2 layers of electric tape just on the edge under the connectors. That will raise the board a bit so the case won't close flush but it still fits in the gba slot. This solved my problem for good. Hope this can help others


Sorry for my english, french is my 1st language.


edit: I just noticed that Alan and tepples have the same problem. Can you guys try that and tell me if it works for you too?

sounds like a feasable solution, I don't have that problem though.

Recently mine's been just booting to a white screen, but after powering off and on again it works. Could this be the same problem?
