Hello

I have Flash 2 Advance Linker with 256M Flash Card and I can write GBA roms
without any problems; but if I write GB or GBColor roms they don't work,
don't run anyway.
So please help; how should I write these GB, GBC roms? what Transfer
software for Windows 98SE should I use?

Thanks for answer

There's nothing wrong - you can't write the older GB/GBC roms to a GBA cart.

I suggest you go google for a program called "Goomba". This is a GB emulator
which will take a collection of GB roms and spit out a .gba rom which you
can then write to the flash cart. When you play, you can choose which GB
game you want. Beware that not all GB games will work with it though.

I've not tested any GBC roms, I'm not sure that Goomba supports them.

thanks Paul for answer...
Goomba is very good solution for GB games... anyway some roms for GBC only
don't run but for example Pokemon Gold does... for every game colors are
only black and white...
maybe someone know GBColor emulator for GBAdvance?

Unfortunately, I don't believe such a beast exists - and with the advent of
the bloody awful DS, most homepbrew developers will concentrate their
efforts on that. I'd not count on any GBA based GBC emulators coming along
now.

use a program called pogoshell.

It was specifically written for
Flash2Advance carts and allows to you create a menu-driven interface for
playing nes and gba roms on your gba.

But it won't allow him to play GBC or GB roms without supporting emulation.
