first go to backup loaders with your topic (why dont these people do anything)
second tell me which loader (try Cfgloader)
third tell me which cIOS you use and which base IOS (eg Waninkoko rev19, installed on 249&250, baseios 57)

Well im sorry im new to this site so i taught that this was the right catagory. But anyway, if you ask me what usb loader? Well Cfgloader, neogamma, usb loader GX, wiiflow, almost everyone, and for the IOSes i tried IOS249,250,hermes222/223 (but thats not the one that i need for the games i want; i looked it up) and I allready used any title deleter 5 times to delete everything and install it again, so i realy don't know what this can be. I do use an 8gig SDcard so maybe that could be the issue...

It's called USB Loader for a reason. You need a external USB hard drive device.

NOO that's not true USB-loaders work with anything throught the USB-port of the wii.

Exactly. So why are you using a 8GB SD card? SD is not USB!!!
You know, the 2 ports on the BACK of the Wii?
Those are USB ports!!!!

Any decent loader will run games off SD card fine. I use cfg usb loader to play my favourite games from SD card.

An SD-card through an USB-port is also USB!!

Look at the title man; I think someone has learned something today...

BUT anyway It could be that it is a bad sd-card because on windows I had a lot of trouble when formatting it. It allways made a partition for only 200MB??! so maybe when i used WBFS-manager there x-went something wrong like not burning the whole ISO...

 

[ddetkowski]

My point being, USB is a drive connected to USB port only,
And SD is SD card only. Yes, some loaders will play games
from Disc, USB and SD.

BTW I just tried to load another game via just a DVD and guess what; another error (error 1101) pfff WHY CAN'T I JUST PLAY GAMES!!!!!!!!!!

If you have a new wii, it has a D3-2 dvd drive in it. Those will not play backups of ANY kind, Wii, GC, Movies.
If you had an older wii, it would've been no problem.
You need a USB drive, or an SD card FORMATTED to WBFS in order to play games on your wii.
You need WBFS manager installed on your PC, then use this to format your SD or USB, then transfer the game ISO to those drives. You also need a loader=Neogamma, USB loader GX, etc.....

No, not at all, your post is full of misinfo.

You don't need a USB drive/SD card formatted to WBFS (FAT32 works fine, NTFS works but no installation of games via the loader.

You do not need any wbfs "manager" installed on your PC.

[timothy Van der]
