DS Misc > DS Ticking/Flashing

For some reason when I close my DS when a game is paused, the speakers start making a ticking noise (click ---- click --- click) and at the same time, the screen flashes white on/off.

I'm using a FlashMe'd DS with an M3 CF. Anyone else notice this?

you have to keep an official NDS game in slot 1 to bypass this problem.

ah thanks, sorted :)

Sometimes playing an official game with a GBAMP in it, I got the same problem, especially with Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.

Funny. Maybe the game is looking for something in the GBA slot?
Maybe we could set up some buffer overflow exploit?

Yeah, Nintendogs seems to do the same thing for some reason.
