Avoid www.dollarsavingsdirect.com! What a pain...

It turns out that www.dollarsavingsdirect.com doesn't support ACH pulls from other banks, and they make it rather difficult to link other outside accounts. You can only link 2 outside accounts - the one you initially funded the account with, and then one other Checking account (savings accounts are not allowed).  Plus, with the checking account linkage you have to send them a voided check before it becomes active. Give that other banks have more competitive rates and better customer service, I'm kind of sad I ever signed up with www.dollarsavingsdirect.com (Emigrant bank). 

Making Advance Wars work With EZ-FLASH IV cart

Advance Wars does not work with the standard EZ-Flash loader. You need to use GBATA instead. The link below explains the steps requred.  To summarize: use GBATA's SRAM patcher on the .GBA file first, and then use the EZ-Flash loader to copy the .gba file, taking care to un-check the patch save box.

The question this raises: is there ever a time where you should use GBATA first? I don't know yet.
