Trying to see if I can fix a broken flashcart. I know the problem is hardware, because it gives the same result with or without an SD card inserted (corrupted DS icon & header, white screen on launch. Error when trying to erase the flash chip when trying the ntrboot utility on 3DS)

For precision: it used to work since 2011 and stopped working sometime in the past couple of years

Does anybody see anything wrong on this board? I'm trying to look closely but it all looks fine to me

@Siph I'd say one of the chips has gone bad
