Yes, so true, I had to "rewrite" the card every 5 or 6 months with the gdemu. And I will have to do it again before Xmas sure.

A thing that never happened with the old Dreamshell and slow SD card. :-(

Is a very weird random fail because really the files are not corrupted.

... And the lot of time wasted searching the fail on the psu, the pads, the main board, the eject button... Jjajjaja

I agree it is weird because the GDEMU doesn't write on the card, it just reads it!
