Go to the Acekard website then click on 'Download', and you have the option of either the Official Acekard firmware, or the unofficial Acekard All-In-One firmware. (AKAIO)
You can use the official AceKard firmware, but for more support use AKAIO (Acekard all in one)
The firmware is probably not in the root of the SD card. (http://www.acekard.com/download.php)
Neither, Go with an Acekard 2i. The Acekard 2i is the Acekard team's current top of the line card, that will work on the DSi and 3DS consoles as well (the Acekard RPG / Acekard 2's can't do this).
The Acekard RPG is not manifactured anymore. The official Acekard Team also dropped their support for this card. You should definitly buy an Acekard 2i instead. You can buy them at any official Acekard distributor such as buy-acekard.com
Check the Acekard website.
Now, fake acekard 2i come out, please don't choose a cheapest store to buy. You'd better buy the acekard 2i from a professional acekard 2i reseller. You can try at 4CoolDay.com, they are the Acekard Reseller for years.
Acekard 2i is better
You need moonshell , but i think that wont work on the offical acekard 2i so you need the fake firmware AKAIO , search it on google . Than you need moonshell and a DPG convertor , i reccoremend to download a mpg convertor and batchDPG , first convert the .AVI to mpg or mpeg , than convert it with batchDPG to DPG , all done !
yes, without a microsd the acekard does not work at all
You can download either the Acekard firmware or the AKAIO firmware from acekard.com, then extract the files to your microSD card.Nintendo's latest DSi firmware, 1.4 , is anti-flashcart. To fix this problem on the AK2i you will need the following things:A DS, or a DSi that is running a firmware lower than 1.4This update file: http://www.linfoxdomain.com/nintendo/ds/dls/AceKard_2i_firmware_v1.4.zipExtract the files to a folder elsewhere on your computer.Once you extracted the file you should see two files. One that has "DSi" in it and the other says "DSL". If you are using a DS Lite to update you AK2i then put the "DSL.nds" in your MicroSD.Put the AK2i in you DS and play the ".NDS" file like you would any other game. If you are using a DSi to update you AK2i the do the same thing but do it with the "DSi.nds" file.

Acekards are not illegal. An Acekard does not modify or alter the DS gameconsole, nor does it get bundled with copyrighted software, other then the Acekards operating system. In fact, the Acekard does not even contain storage space. If people decide to load the Acekard with a micro-sd card filled with illegally obtained software, then the Acekard's owner is in violation of international laws, not the Acekard. Acekards could be considered as legal as blank rewritable Cd's, Dvd's, Floppies, Harddrives and usb sticks.
