I think your ds card needs reformatting, or not actually the card but the micro sd, back up all the games and reformat, if stuck let me know.

N-card error

Depending on what type of card you have, you need to go to the appropriate website and download the latest software files.If the card takes a memory card you may also find formatting the card with the fat 32 system more reliable and this may get rid of the Open fat error also.
Hope this helps

Error openx menu dat error

Take all the memory contents out to your computer as backup, format your memory to fat32 and put all the memory contents again to the memory from your computer. If not working try downloading the card system files from the card manufacturer site, these files are needed to run the card just like the operative system in your PC, if these files get corrupt or deleted the card wont work.
