You can use HxD to calculate the checksums.
ROM size doesn't matter much as they're always padded with 0x00 or 0xFF to the next 2^x unless trimmed.

You could dump it by using a transferer II by EMS I'm pretty sure.

How exciting! I'm waiting to see what he's got here!
Plus I guess I now know the value of a dev cart. Wow, I've got to keep watch for those..

The Transferer 2 was about £30 when i got mine, the site I got it from (consolegoods.co.uk) doesn't look to sell them anymore though. I'm sure someone here will know alternate sites to buy stuff like that from though.

If your in the UK i would happily dump it for you if you have no luck finding one, I need an excuse to use my Transferer again.

The only place where I could find one is directly from the manufacturer.
The Link:Transferer II

ok i see that thing now 2 potential problems for me is that i have a Vista computer and nothing else D: so if the software does not support my laptop i wont be able to fix it myself :s and the other issue is my laptop has a 15 pin port and that looks bigger so i may need some sort of cable that goes from my laptop to the Transferers cable if that will work does the transferer only have the usb and port thing ?? or does it have another connection the more connections it has the worse it gets for me as i dont have a desktop computer

Wasn't dumping only working with the N64 ones? I don't remember any Game Boy cheat device that would be able to do so.

Yes, you will need a historic printer port (LPT) with an older operating system (pre vista for sure) to get the old Game Boy tools and devices working. Remember all this was released when everyone was still using Windows 98. USB was also still brand new and not widely used yet.
