can anyone tell me the names of some of the downloads(from this site) the definatly do or dont work on real hardware, ive downloaded some stuff, and they seem to not work on my cart (i modded it with a blue led) so im wondering if the cart is the problem or the games.

I wouldn't say a LED mod would ruin compatability, unless you accidently screwed up something else :s

most of the downloads (if not all) should work with real hardware. I guess it depends what cart you have, what do you have?

It's EZFlash 128Mb

Also, are you booting into the games directly, or from the flash cart's menu?

I know a lot of the games don't have the right magic words to allow them to be booted into, but can still work on hardware if you use the a menu system....

I've tried a bunch of stuff I knew worked (a while ago) and there fine, perhaps it was just the few games i tried first. I'm confident the cart is working fine.
