Help wit r4i gold v1.4.1 on my 3ds

Hi, I just got a brand new 3ds and an r4i gold v1.4.1 card.. I downloaded the latest kernel for the flash card:

Wood R4i v1.43

However, after I installed the patch and used the card on my 3ds, it detects the card as: 'Spongebob THQ' and after I open it, it says "An error occured, press the power button to reboot" and simply hangs there.. Can anyone tell me how I can get the r4 card to work? Thank you..

Update: I tried playing normal DS game, not a 3DS game but a DS game on my 3DS and I still get the same black screen with an error message.. Also I tried downloading a DS game from my 3DS Itself via the download play menu and the screen gets stuck at: "Looking for software to download"
