My previous setup that I was using to play Wii games off my 8GB Disc was
Load game onto usb using WBFS Manager
Play on my Wii 4.2U Wiikey installed and softmodded.

Today I re- softmodded and upgraded to 4.3U using the ModWii wizard downloaded files and instructions. But I can seem to get the USB drive to work to anymore. I tried USB Loader GX and WiiFlow. Each time both say no games found. I connect it to the second usb port. While it is trying to detect the flash drive , I try to remove and reconnect it , I can notice it trying to read since the countdown stops but then it continues and says no USB/games found.

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

1)Why is upgrading to 4.3 stupid? So the version being 4.3 is the cause ? Ppl are using USB drive on 4.3 to play games.
2) I am connecting to the one near the edge.

It's not the cause, it just left you with fewer recovery options if you were ever to brick. You don't need to update your SM to play games, since they don't run under the System Menu. Nothing but anti-homebrew stuff has been added since 4.1.

Are you able to read the drive from WiiXplorer?

Where are the files saved? Try using Wii Backup Manager to set up the directories correctly, or just rip the games from the disc.

    i dont know why tv manufactures put the hdmi ports in dumb locations so the cables have to stick out, and then down, putting strain on the ports. Instead of having the ports along the bottom edge of the tv facing downwards.
