Plug it back into your pc and salvage anything you can, if you care about the data, otherwise skip that and format it as WBFS with WBFS manager (if you haven't already), load the game on it and try again. If it's not recognized by your pc, try with some partition manger software or disk management in Windows and see if it appears there. Otherwise it might be toast.

I have this problem and I really don't know what to do (it's him and Kirby Adventure Wii)

Are you using discs or wbfs files to play those games? Re-download those games (or re-dump those discs) and try again.
Are using a usb flash drive to load games or an external hdd?
You can also post a syscheck here.

You can probably just format it and use it again.
But don't use it for the Wii. Flash drives are notorious for having issues with USB loaders, usually with every game not booting and resulting in a black screen, just like you experienced. And the same goes for USB SD readers. External hard drive is recommended.

Why did think you doing that will help you in any way, smh..
What video cable are you using?
What version of a loader (USBLoaderGX or Wiiflow)?
Is the game the same region as the system? And the game settings in the loader are normal?
ISO I downloaded now was another
Check it in WiiBackupmanager and verify the hash there too, to make sure the iso wasn't faulty/corrupt.
You can also post a syscheck here.
Also do this above.

Then try the NTSC version, unless there's some advantage of using that over the NTSC release that i'm not aware of?

actually I only download PAL, the other games have no problems (except for The Last Story, who made UNDUB with the PAL version, it gives disk reading error in certain areas and if you talk to certain NPC's, but you can finish)

yesterday I formatted the Wii without an SD card, using the Riiconecect 24 method so yes, I haven't touched the cIOS and IOS yet to see if there is no problem, but it continues and the HD is in FAT 32

I remember this game all to well. I told @AmandaRose that I almost quit it, because it can be frustrating as hell with several things. I did beat the first dungeon in the switch version. as for your problem, I'm thinking it's more a corruption issue than a settings one considering you appear to be in a dungeon, and the first one takes like three hours to get to. you didn't experience any issues in those three hours?

nothing at all, just in the pirates' hideout and I found out that the save of the PAL version is compatible with NSTC

I'm not up to that point yet, I don't think. I remember that flying contest thing you do near the beginning, didn't realize you had to push A when you got close to that winged creature to capture the statue. then, the floating down into that circle. what a pita.
