    The software you are referring to should be readily available on the site you purchase the flash cart from. You should not have to "install" anything; simply drag and drop to the microSD card.
    Make sure you buy a fast microSD card. Class 6 or higher.

    Why would the site you buy it from have the software??

    You get it from the official site http://www.acekard.com/download.php

    AKAIO is what the Acekard2i uses, you can ignore the firmware updates as you are using a DSLite not a DSi or 3DS

    If you do need help at the time you are more than welcome to ask

    R4 are junk don't do it

    also don't double post, learn to use edit (lower right of ever post you make)

    Official... lol tons of sites are official retailers go to the official sites and they list who they sell through, the above is one of the cheapest though for UK buyers

    As for 3DS updated firmware, well this only effects you if you update the 3DS I'm currently on 4.3.0-10 and waiting for the Acekard team to release there update, last time they didn't bother posting an update (maybe in hope they wouldn't get blocked) I ended up e-mailing them for the update, as far as I know there has not been any new features added by the latest update and the only thing that you are prevented from doing is looking at the e-shop that personly I never buy anything from

    for a NDSLite user you need never worry about these updates anyway just update the latest AKAIO for the Acekard2i that controls the compatability of the DS roms
