Dsi Slot 1 Not Working

| Posted on by



<!---

THIS IS THE ISSUE TRACKER FOR TWiLight Menu++. For support please go to:

DSi with Nintendo Firmware 1.4.4u. 1 GB SD card (FAT partition) in DSi SD slot. Nothing in Slot-1. Problem: Launching any homebrew application (in.NDS format) via TwilightMenu result in the touch screen not responding at all. After frequent use of the slot (swapping cartridges), one or more of the metal strips which make contact to the cartridge's metal strips on the inside of the slot has bended thus making the DSi unable to read cards, and when inserting a new card, there are times where the bended strip (s) would touch others and cause the DSi to shut off.

I wanna get a friend something for a birhtday and I know that shes using the Korg DS-10 a LOT lately. One thing she dont like about it is that the save function is so limited. Does anyone know enogh about the program to know if a slot 2 DS flash card or SD adapter would let her export it to her computer? Obviesly the Korg program has to be in slot 1 so thats not an option.

Dsi Slot 1 Not Working Remotely


Edit:

Dsi Slot 1 Not Working One

I'm looking at this particuler flashcard. Does anyone know if theres any kind of application or something that lets you export data from a DS game to this thing? Essentially things like saved games/compleat songs.
