August 28, 2009 7 comments

Before proceeding to this guide please ensure you have the latest extracted acekard 2i software on your micro sd / sdhc card.

You can get the acekard 2i software by clicking the acekard official website on this blog and go to download. Its 4.18 as of today the 28th Aug. 09.

You will need to perform an extra function as below apart from the above main software.

The guide starts here. Please patiently follow the guide. Its easy  : ( NOTE : IF YOU WANA WATCH A VIDEO THE LINK IS AT THE BOTTOM )

1. Important: if you want to update you AceKard 2i on your DSi console, please make sure that your DSi console is having a firmware version lower than 1.4. If your DSi has been updated to version 1.4E, you will need to use a DS Lite or DSi 1.3 or lower console to update your Acekard 2i. Please take note, the firmware is different from the main driver as advised above.

Again please ensure you have the main acekard 2i extracted firmware first on your acekard 2i.
2. Then download the add-on firmware here :

Extract it but dont upload yet.

3.    Unzip the firmware file downloaded, there are two firmware update files

a)    For DSi        :ak2ifw_update_14_DSi.nds         ( USE THIS ONE IF YOU HAVE 1.3 DSi for 1.4 DSi)
b)    For DS Lite     :ak2ifw_update_14_DSL.nds     ( USE THIS ONE IF YOU HAVE A DS LITE )
c)    If you have multiple Acekard 2i cards that you wish to update all in a row, run on the DS Lite console using ak2ifw_update_14_DSL.nds

4.    Now copy the appropriate firmware file to the root folder of the microSD memory card.

5.    Plug in the microSD to the Acekard 2i and insert the Acekard 2i to the DS console.
