I got my GP32 today but sadly my smart media card didnt arrive :(

I thought i may have been able to install the OS to the inbuilt memory but the software is having problems since their is no card in my GP32.

Im desperate to do something.
 
your having probelems with the software because u dont have an smc therefore u cant do anything without an smc

Yeah i found that :0

The MP3 player is a load better that i was expecting, im so glad i bought it :)

I think i may run down to the shops later and buy another card so i can play with my GP32 tonight :)
 
In case someone has multifw or pacrom installed in flash then he/she can run GXBs via USB..
 
It is ok to pruchase any brand of smartmedia card isnt it?

as i can get a 64MB card for £17.99 for one brand and in the same store another brand is £32.99 for a 64MB card
 
Actually, I heared somewhere that only 2 companies actually make SMC cards, and lots package them, so really anything should be good.

You can buy SmartMedia Cards cheaper than that online if you look around - try here: http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/in...&subcat_uid=403

I bought mine from this company and the delivery was pretty fast, although this may now be affected by the postal strike.

:lol: That why I did when I got my GP32, even thought it came with my SMC. I quickly put in batteries and turned it on. I was amazed at the speed and that theres sound (I was used to using GeePee32). I was also amazed with the light, because I hadn't had a handheld with a light since my gamegear.
