Alright, Windows stupidly overwrote my flashcard without my consent and now my M3 Lite won't seem to boot into the M3 menu. It'll go through the PassMe screen, but then the DS is two black screens.
Googling around the internet it seems this is a flashcard problem, and formatting the SD card should fix it. The thing is, the SD card has been formatted everywhich way in FAT32 with all the allocations that Windows 7 offers. And the M3 menu still won't load (if I could get that to load, I'd at least know the problem is fixed).
Is there a particular setting for the Kingston 1gig micro-SD card that the M3 Lite wants, or am I completely wrong? Or is the SD card finally completely screwed (it shouldn't be, Win7 finds it as does any other computer I have) and I have to go out for a new one?
The M3 wiki says to direct questions to this forum, so... here I am.
Can anyone help?
Edit: Nevermind, I'm a complete idiot and formatting it to FAT (when it was FAT32 before, WTF why can't it read that mode anymore?) and default allocation let the M3 menu boot up. *whew* Crisis averted. Now to load SMT: Strange Journey on it.
