Did you try reading any documentation that came with the program?

What are you trying to do with WMB? Are you trying to run a .nds demo, or are you trying to run wifime?

yes, DS demos. not wifime

see i downloaded yesturday the stuff i needed to transfer DS demo files from computer to my DS. i read the document and i followed every step it said. i got the custom driver, i got the wmb, i even downloaded wifime not nowing if it would help. i instaled the custom driver and it said error, could not load the drivers for this device. the wmb wouldent open properly and i still dont get how to use the data parametter that is required.

it says : is not reconized as an internal or external command.
operable program or batch file
also after i instaled the driver i went to divice manager and i saw the driver but it had an exlamation point becide it saying somthing about it not having all the drivers.

search for a program called Front End for wmb or something like that
it will make using the softwaare much easier.

You have to navigate to where you installed the program, it isn't going to be in your path.
