    Well, Wood R4 on the R4 SDHC has been confirmed to cause issues.
    You are able to play the games, but it is more like a GameCube with no memory card: You can't save!
    Well, you have two options:
    - Buy a new card
    - Update to YSMenu
    Here we are discussing YSMenu problems.
    Feel free to try anything to fix your YSMenu installation!

    This is no questions topic! (please read before posting)
    You may post problems related to YSMenu on R4 SDHC, but this is not the right topic to post in when having problems generating YSMenu, playing a certain game, or anything that is explained in this post.

    DLDI Errors
    Getting DLDI errors? Download this file:
    r4dldi.dat
    And place it in the root of your micro SD card.
    Please note YSMenu doesn't work on any R4's other then the R4 and the R4 SDHC!
    This file is build with and meant for the R4 SDHC. Using this with any other card may not work.
    Please format your card when you still get errors after using this file.


    Boot loader errors
    Getting "No boot loader" errors? Download this file:
    r4patch.dat
    Place it in the YSMenu/TTMenu folder, then run YSMenu again.
    If it is not working try putting it in the root.

    Load ROM errcode=-# errors
    Download the following RAR file (download link found in the topic):
    Download (right click > Save target as)
    Link was dead, replaced! If your browser doesn't support this method just click the link.[/b]
    Replace the files inside the TTMenu/YSMenu folder when asked.
    Download the files from the link above
    - Go into your SD card (Computer > Removable Device)
    -- Go into TTMenu/YSMenu
    --- Paste/move all files into there (TXT ones are not needed, but very interesting)
    ---- Press "Overwrite" when asked (Yes to all)

    Getting any other errors?
    Rebuild YSMenu with the latest release.
    There are various tutorials on how to do this listed here.

    r4dldi.dat - Root of SD card
    r4patch.dat - YSMenu/TTMenu folder
    infolib.dat - YSMenu/TTMenu folder
    extinfo.dat - YSMenu/TTMenu folder
    savlib.dat - YSMenu/TTMenu folder
    usrcheat.dat - YSMenu/TTMenu folder

    Please don't mess around with the other files as they will never need to be changed!
    The database is not updated anymore!! Be aware this is not recent!

    1. Download the latest usrcheat.dat from
    http://cheats.gbatemp.net/
    or
    http://cheats.gbatemp.net/temp/ (not recommended)

    2. Unzip it (with WinRAR)

    3. Open your Micro SD card (Computer > Removable Device)

    4. Open the YSMenu/TTMenu folder

    5. Copy the just-extracted usrcheat.dat into the folder

    6. Overwrite the older one

    7. Enjoy the new cheats!
    (Red = Not working, Green = Working, Grey = Unknown)
    - R4 SDHC
    - R4 Ultra
    - R4i SDHC Upgrade (1st gen)
    - SuperCard DSTWO (just tested for fun)
    - R4 III
    - E7 DS
    - N5 DS

    Please note anything not related to "R4" probably will not work, along with R4's that work on the DSi!

    Do NOT post about:
    - SuperCard series
    - Acekard series
    - EDGE series

    Or anything else not related to R4.

    Please help me add cards to this spoiler.
    Test all the R4 cards you have, that will help me alot!
    (please post what tutorial you followed and what method you used)
    Yasu for YSMenu
    Pong20302000
    retrogamerfan
    elixerdream & Kenlixer
    RARLabs
    GBATemp
    People at RomUlation for the topics
    Mediafire for file Hosting
    R4 SDHC team for the card and firmware
    Myself for this thread


    Type the name from the game in the searchbar with site:mediafire.com after it.
    It should look like this:
    New Super Mario Bros site:mediafire.com
    You can replace mediafire.com with an other file hosting site.

    (THIS WILL BE EXPANDED EVEN MORE)

    Yeah... Probably because YSMenu was designed for the original R4 (I think).
    Thanks, by the way.

    your roms go on the root of the sd card. or you can create a folder, put it any name you want. and put your roms there. what card do you have. if its a R4 clone. remember ysmenu does not substitute the r4 firmware. but runs as a secondary firmware

    Copy YSMenu and all files on your SD card to the computer and then format it.
    Computer > Removable Device (right click) > Format
    FAT32 is what you want/need.

    If you do not have a card that says
    "R4
    Revolution for DS
    NDS/NDSL"
    Then it is a clone. YSMenu won't run as firmware then.

    PS make sure you have a _DS_MENU.dat in the root folder on your SD card.
