Dogs milk? Like milk from a dog's teat?

Asm retro has a tut on how to modify the left and right triggers on the original GBA to act as the start and select buttons.

I have done the mod and it is extremely comfortable to use and helps navigating through the menus, even faster than a DMG... For me.

Well played.

This is not an SD card problem. The ._ files are extra files created by Mac OS X. Those are not the ROM files, but extra files (so called resource forks) containing some sort of information about the corresponding actual files. Normally, those files should be hidden under both OSX and Windows, and never cause a problem, but here, they are visible. Just ignore them and scroll down (or if you're lucky, up past the beginning) to reach the real ROM files.

To solve the problem permanently, see the second answer in the following link. It will tell you how to remove those files and make sure they're never recreated on that SD card.

I'm sorry for offending such a big shot.

12. Thread titles should describe the topic of the thread. Please avoid titles like "Help!" or "Have you seen this...". Something like "How can I do a beefy bassdrum with Midines?" or "I just saw a chip music reference at the bus stop" is good. Staff reserves the right to edit unclear thread titles to something more descriptive.

I got my SD card from Fry's Electronics locally ;w;

what os are you copying them from? Have you tried another sd card?

I am using a Mac to transfer the files over. Using the card reader that is built into my MBP. It's an SDXC reader.

The really awkward thing about it is that it is apparently really touchy. MBP sd card readers are apparently quirky.

If I insert the SD card regularly, it will be read only.

If I nudge the SD card in, just ever so slightly so that my MBP can read it, it will be read and write... and I am able to transfer the files over to the SD card at that point.

The current SD card is a 16GB SDHC card that I purchased new. I upgraded the firmware to 1.6.1 with the newest revision via a 2GB SD card (original SD and not SDHC). Using, what I believe to be, the latest version of Ohboy, an unofficial version.

did you unzip the files? It looks like those . files are hidden files and not actually the roms.

Files that were transferred to the Ohboy rom folder were either .gb or .gbc files.

Bump with new info!
