GBA Games not saving (Supercard Lite)

[mikerapin]

I searched, like a good newbie, and couldn't find anything relating to my problem...

I have a Supercard Lite with a 1GB microSD and haven't had any problems with anything (outside of some homebrew games not working, but I'm not dying over that). Just recently, I have been putting GBA games onto my card and for some reason they won't save (ie. Metal Slug, Dragonball, Zelda: Minish Cap, etc.).

I have the most recent software for patching the games--2.61--and have tried downgrading--2.58--with no luck. When i patch the games, I get three files (as usual): .gba .sci and .sav

Does anyone have any ideas on how to eliminate this problem? (if you need more info, let me know)

Thanks in advance.

Did you press the L+R+A+Select hotkey after saving in-game to send the updated save info to the *.sav file?

[mikerapin]

did not do that...

::;tried it:::

No success.

Did you patch you ROMs before so that they will take the supercard hot keys?
