Hacking Error formatting hard drive

Beaps · Apr 11, 2021

Hi all

I gotta 1tb hardcdrive that I have partitioned 50/50 for wii and gc. The issue I have is I cant seem to format any patition to wbfs.

If I use wbfs manager to format I get an error
If I use wiibackupmanager it seens to format but it doesn't really as it doesn't show on the wii Console.

Any ideas

Use 100% fat32, this can be used to store wii and GC games

Make sure you're running a modern cios and usb loader, use modmii, or post a Syscheck, or both

So Wii came can run from a FAT32 drive now and doesnt have to be WBFS any more. Also is 100% Fat32 a program or just format all the 1TB to fat32??

Format the hdd as a single fat32 partition. If u use modmii, it can help direct you on accomplishing this and many other things

Edit: 100% fat32 is not a program, I just meant to format the whole drive as fat32

You can format a drive in windows by right clicking > format > format options > “fat 32”

Nope that only works for storage under 32gb. Due to the limitation of FAT32, the Windows system doesn't support creating a FAT32 partition on a partition more than 32GB. To format anything over 32gb you need to use a partition manager.
