    no, i didnt know i had to, and certainly dont know how.

    is that the problem because i'm trying to use the memory card from the original r4 card?

    Format Memory card. Clean sweap.

    Then POST number 2, Click on that link, Save that file. Extrat the zipo file using Winra/Winzip.

    Once you have unzipped the rar file, You'll find couple of file/folders in there. Put them in the Memory card. You dont need o create any folders for this.

    Once you have plugged it in (Assuming you have already formatted the Memeory card) IF you havn't

    Then click My Computer, Right click Removable Disk, then you should see FORMAT. Then follw instruction.

    Ok in the memory card Create a folder called GAMES. In that folder is where you put all the games in. There are website out there you can download from. Google is your best friend.

    Same as music, Video etc.

    Hope this helped.
