What's new
I've been doing some recently.

I haven't had much luck with these cards

The Ridata and Blue and white one (generic from Aliexpress) both are very finicky. It may boot up, but I then get an error when the game is loaded, it also sometimes will go into a boot loop which is apparently a sector ID issue, but I'm using the ID that I found.

My findings are listed below

If you read through the above, you'll see that I've always had great success with SanDisk - I've pretty much searched through all of Marketplace and second hand markets to try and find as many SanDisk CF cards as I can, I currently have 5 in my possession and hoping I'll have 20 by the end of it all to give me a decent selection of games

Yeah in my experience, every single original SanDisk ultra 2 has worked for me every single time

i bought for test from AliExpress
i used cf usb adapter, win10

My ones from aliexpress never worked also - well 90% of it..

I had a few cards that behaved similarly with games and I would also have some that would boot the game and then upon next boot, it'd bootloop or just a blank screen. Results with the aliexpress cards were way too inconsistent
 
same card but 512 mb - sfa3u works too )))

What cf reader do you have?

I found the one I got from China only does SanDisk 100% of the time. The cf from aliexpress sometimes works

But on my chihiro, the ones from aliexpress always works but the SanDisk never work. The chihiro card reader looks like a factory reader.
 
when I bought naomi, all the naomi / aw games worked on a 1gb sandisk card. I think it's the original card. But now only dolphin blue and some naomi games working on the SanDisk. I use Windows 7 and a chinese adapter. I repeat, until recently everything worked (all games). I ordered a trvnscend cf card from China, generally a black screen. On another Chinese 512 mb card, initially only capcom vs snk2 and sf3zero working.

I'm worried why the sandisk stopped reading all the games. but the part games still starts. Errou 21 - loop loading, after 3 times showing error 21

Try use @rtw's gcfi app instead and see if you still get the same errors.

I'm assuming you're using the correct security id of the cf card?

I can’t open gcfi. How works this program? I try open fail (administrator) but showings 1 sec black dos window.

Correct security id? I don’t now. Explain me plenty

most games stopped loading after the incident. it might be a coincidence. I wanted to connect Naomi to a smart TV through an adapter vga to hdmi (china). Naomi loaded the game, but there was a black screen and a technical or burnt smell went from inside Naomi. I quickly turned it off and everything seems to be fine. but the games don't work at all.
