VisualBoyAdvance Pokemon Emerald Blank Screen Load ROM?

Been awhile since my last time playing GameBoy Advance (GBA). Year 2000+ I have experienced playing the real GBA. Nowadays, I just play GBA using VisualBoyAdvance on Windows 10 and this software works perfectly!

But there is an error when you load Pokemon Emerald ROM. I have googled the error and found the solution here (http://ngemu.com/threads/pokemon-emerald-white-screen.185305/). What a surprise that it just simple fix/solution, just change the Save Type > Flash 128K, then the ROM now load successfully.

I downloaded my GBA ROM from EmuParadise.Me (https://www.emuparadise.me/Nintendo_Gameboy_Advance_ROMs/31). Have fun!

Want To Update DVD Drive ROM Writer Firmware?

Do you sometimes got problem with DVD you are burning with? Keep getting error or stuck in the middle of the burning process? Or even stuck at earlier process, maybe 1%, 9%, or even half of process? This problem or error usually occured for some type or DVD brand. Here is my solution.

It even my first time to know that we can actually update our DVD Drive ROM Writer. First of all, you need to identify what model is your DVD Writer. I use Nero Burning ROM to burn my DVD. So, at the recorder selection, you can see what model your DVD Writer is. You can either see it when you open the Nero Burning ROM and select New Compilation, or go to menu Recorder > Choose Recorder.

At menu Recorder > Choose Recoder, you can view the current firmware revision of your DVD Writer. So now, is that the latest firmware you got there? To find the answer, take note the model of the DVD Writer. Now, go to www.firmwarehq.com. Mine is ihas324. So I search for ihas324. My previous firmware revision is W, and the latest is Y. So I download the ihas324 Y (BL1Y firmware).

Remove any CD or DVD in the DVD Writer, then start the firmware update. After done, restart your computer. BUT WAIT! My DVD Writer is not working after the update. I can not eject it, not responding. If you have problem like me, here is my solution. First, shutdown the PC, turn of the power plug. Then I change the SATA port for my DVD Writer on the motherboard, change to other available slot. Remove the power cable for DVD Writer, and put it back. Then after that, I turn on my computer, and now, its working perfectly!

Hope this article will help you all. Please take note that this my experience and my way on solving this problem. If you want to try, do it at your own risk. Just be careful.

.Net Framework 4 Installation Error 0xc8000222

- From what I have experienced myself, this error is related to Windows Update.
- First, goto Windows Update and try check for update. If there is any error, for example, it says service is not running, first you can try repair Windows Update.
- Try Windows Update Automated Troubleshooter.
- Try Microsoft Fix It
- Search, download and run "WindowsUpdateDiagnostic.diagcab".
- My solution (I forgot where I found.this working solution but somewhat from Microsoft related web/forum/comment), rename "C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\Logs\edb.log" or just delete it, and restart your PC. After that my Microsoft Update is working and I now can install .Net Framework 4 smoothly.
- That is my solution, I can't guarantee it will work at your PC or not, do it at your own risk.

(Solved) Error 1814 - VLC Installation

- I got error "unable to elevate - erorr 1814" when I try to install VLC Media Player.
- Just a simple solution; right-click on the installation file (.exe), Run As Administrator.
- Info from site here.

(Windows XP Setup Error) Setup cannot find the End-User License Agreement (EULA). Setup will not continue.

- From Microsoft Support site, it is because the hard disk if formatted by operating system other than Windows XP. And my problem is because the hard disk if formatted by Windows 7 Setup.

- So, I use MiniTool Partition Wizard, boot from usb pendrive, and format the hard disk to FAT32. You can find my tutorial to create a bootable Partition Wizard from pendrive here.

N900 NITDroid Error

I was trying to install NITDroid N12 UMay and its kernel 07_rc4. Firstly I try using auto-installer 2.8.8 but to no avail, there was an error when I want to dpkg kernel, something related to permission. Then I was using the second method by repartitioning eMMC to make home folder 2GB. Successfully dpkg the kernel. Then I reboot, and choose 2 for NITDroid, then strange things happen. At first it loaded smoothly then suddenly there was an error, then after that, I can't boot both Maemo and NITDroid.

I want to flash back but to no avail, maybe it is because I am using Windows 7 (and I have tried both 32 and 64 bit). After trying for hours, I try to flash kernel only, and it works!

I use this command to flash kernel only, and this is PR 1.3, newest is 1.3.1.

flasher-3.5.exe -F RX-51_2009SE_20.2010.36-2_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin --flash-only=kernel -f

Psst: Maybe I will try this NITDroid next time :D

Caesar 4 Patch 1.00 to 1.12 Error

Got yourself stuck when you want to patch Caesar 4 from 1.00 to 1.12 using caesariv_update_en_10_12.exe?

Don't panic. First, goto Caesar 4 game directory, rename the original caesariv.exe to caesariv1.exe (in case this solution isn't working then you already have the backup. Download this file and extract to Caesar 4 directory, and run the extracted caesariv.exe. This solve my problem.

Tropico, Game Error

After installing Tropico game, I've countered errors.
1. BINKW32.DLL
2. MSS32.DLL

BINKW32 is for video, and MSS32 is for audio. I have tried almost all version of BINKW32.DLL and MSS32.DLL downloaded from the internet but to no avail. Any solution?

First, the error with BINKW32.DLL is solved using same dll file copied from Red Alert 2 game folder. And now came new error with MSS32.DLL. I've tried many versions of the dll file and lastly it came out with UNKNOWN ERROR (no message, just error logo after run the .exe).

Edit 001 24/3/12:
- You can try binkw32.dll from Red Alert 2, download here.
