    Default Can anyone tell me what these errors on the no$gba mean?

    i just downloaded the no$gba and when i tried to play pokemon diamond i got these errors
    -Bad Header checksum(real gameboy would shutdown)
    -bad ROM entrypoint at Header(000h)
    -Bad fixed value 96h at Header(0B2h)
    i got the roms from here and they worked when i opened them on DeSmuMe but that things got lag like hell. can anyone tell me what these errors mean? or am i just wasting my time?

    Nothing bad to be honest just header read errors this has little to do with the actual game data though, there is probobly no actual problems with the header, it's possible that no$gba just doesn't handle DS headers too well/recognise all of them

    Headers have internal rom name and internal cart code any region lock info (DS roms are not region locked as it happens) Language info ect, all game data files are stored in other files within the rom and are not directly linked to the header

    lol A real gameboy can't read DS roms , what a stupid error message... just pointing it out

    Something wrong with the rom you've downloaded, either it was corrupted, or patched wrongly, etc. Redownload it again or get it from another mirrors.
