How come every time i try to download new codes onto action replay with action replay code manager it says you must connect your action replay when it IS conected?

Answer 1

When the code manager disk is uploaded onto your computer, it is somehow installed under the wrong driver. If you search action replay driver on Google, the right one is there. Download that driver and install that one. once that is done, you have to play around with some settings (the steps can be found on codejunkies) and the new driver must be called DS link. after this is done you can update your codes and such. However, if your action replay says that it cannot update because there is not enough free space, turn off your ds, hold down a+b while the ds is still off, turn on the ds while still holding a+b and when the Nintendo screen loads, hold down start and select while still holding a+b. when the action replay screen loads let go of all the buttons. This resets your action replay, this will allow you to update your action replay. You may think that your ds froze while trying to reset the ar because the screens will stay white longer than usual. the screen will eventually load to the action replay screen and it should reset. If it doesn't reset right away, try doing this again until it does.

Have you tried putting your action replay in to your ds and turning it on and then using code manager? you're supposed to have it in and turned on.
