my girlfriend was using animati and colors on her DS, saved a file, and then shut down the console. when she tried to start the console again, it send a "couldnt find menu.ds file" andit wouldnt let runa nything.
when we tried to check the card on her computer, it wouldnt show this
![[Image: fvgdfgvdfv.jpg?t=1266200132]](http://i730.photobucket.com/albums/ww301/Daniela_ortega/fvgdfgvdfv.jpg?t=1266200132)
cannot access G:\
file name, directory or tag is invalid
she cannot erase the files, nor access the card's content. we checked if the card had a read-protection. the main concernt is to not lose the drawings and other file smade by the said programs.
so, the big question is, any ideas?

I think the only way to get in is to format it. :/

Most likely, an error in properly saving the data caused the card's contents to corrupt.
I think this is most likely because the folders (and possibly the files inside) are corrupted and contain garbled characters in their filenames. This has actually happened to me before and I still haven't managed to delete the files (they're still on my portable hard drive but I just ignore them). It's probably best to format, like Viper said, as the only other thing you can do is...store other data on the card. If the contents are really corrupted like I am assuming, there's not really anything to lose anymore.
