| If you are experiencing the "System Settings loading infinitely after reinserting the SD card" error when trying to install MSET9 using the [[3dsguide:installing-boot9strap-(mset9-play-store)#section-ii---mset9|MSET9 Play Store]] guide, this page will help you resolve that issue by swapping to a spare SD card. If you are following the [[3dsguide:installing-boot9strap-(mset9-cli)|MSET9 CLI]] guide, you should follow the normal [[3dsguide:troubleshooting#installing-boot9strap-mset9|troubleshooting]] steps instead.

|
| All of your original games and saves will be kept intact if you follow the steps properly.
| | The steps below hashes are a more detailed run through of the troubleshooting steps located [https://3ds.hacks.guide/troubleshooting.html#installing-boot9strap-mset9 here] and will perform a fresh install with either a spare SD card, or your original SD card which has been backed up and formatted, to avoid issues with your current install causing MSET9 to not work properly. |

|
| Before starting this guide, please ensure the following two things: | | Before continuing please ensure you are choosing the right model (old 3DS, old 3DS XL, old 2DS vs New 3DS, New 3DS XL, New 2DS XL) and correct system version. |
| # You have chosen the correct model type (New vs. Old) and system version in the MSET9 setup.
| | |
| #* New models have four shoulder buttons ({{B|L|ZL|ZR|R}}) and the C-Stick directly above the Y button - Old models have two shoulder buttons ({{B|L|R}}) and no C-Stick.
| | Also please make sure you are installing/injecting AFTER ejecting from the extra data screen and not before. |
| # You injected MSET9 in Section II Step 10, not any earlier.
| |
| #* If System Settings is stuck because you injected too early (such as in Section II Step 5), just follow the instructions for removing MSET9 and then restart from the beginning of Section II. You do not have to swap out or reformat your SD card in this case.
