Could you test your games with Wiiflow or Configurable Loader v70 and see the result ??

Did you format your USB media with this software ?? ==>http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm


To try :

Format in WBFS and see if it works with this format.

have tested with wiiflow 5.2 latest version, same black screen issue.
also deleted usbloader gx & wiiflow from sd, download again and install, same black screen issue.
tried format fat32 in wii backup manager & hp usb tool, same black screen issue.

not tried wbfs format yet, will test

Your wii is a PAL version.

Are you from Malaysia ??

Which regions (NTSC-U, NTSC-J, PAL) are your games ??

the wii is PAL Europe version. games are mix PAL and NTSC-U.
have tried launch both pal & ntsc game. have also tried changing video output to disc default, force ntsc, force pal, ntsc480 etc. also the tv is current year model and can display both ntsc & pal.
as mentioned in one of my earlier posts, I have gamecube games on the same seagate 500gb hard drive (single fat32 partition) that I am able to play using Nintendont, just the wii games wont.

anyway will try format a usb drive to wbfs and see if it works.

by the way, can usbloader gx run wii games off the sd card ? might try that too....since there is free space on it.

Hello.:)

I looked again all over your previous Posts and also agree with @jeannotte that the USB Device and/or maybe also the Cable is to verify.
Your sysCheck is perfect,USBLoader GX is on the latest Version.

By the Way: Please try to reset the USBloader GX Settings -> Global Settings -> Default Settings.
or delete the "GXGlobal.cfg" in the Folder "SD:\apps\usbloader_gx" please.

Did you updated your USBLoader GX from an previous Version or installed a clean/fresh Version 3.0 r1272 ?

Thank you for your Patience and your Help.:)

Hello.:)

This is really a tough nut to crack.:(

I looked over your Posts and see we forget some important Thing to ask:

Did you format your HDD on an Windows PC ?
Can you please check how your Drive is recognized ? MBR or GPT ?
Did you have maybe more then one Partition on it ?

reason I did the hack/mod was because the wii dvd stopped loading/ejecting discs. but I never got backup loader working despite many many tries (all my previous posts here). so I have dismantled the wii dvd to try fix it...will post in hardware section for help/dvd in fixing it.

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    i dont have an sd card adapter but I have an usb sd card adapter

    For your R4
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    but why choose it over ysmenu @Psionic Roshambo?

    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
