OK, I have a soft modded Wii running menu 4.0 with DVDX & HBC and I just ran into something rather odd.

For some reason I can no longer restore game save data from an SD card.

What happens when I go into the menu is I get to game save data and then click the SD tab and then.... nothing... total lock; has to be reset via power button.

I've tried using both the normal 16Gb SDHC card I use as well as a backup on a 2Gb SD card... both of which I can use for hombrew apps, SD channels, etc without issue. I looked at the save import/export facility on the Home Brew Browser, but it appears to use a different format (or at least different directories) than the Wii itself does. I also have no clue when I lost this ability, as it's not something I use very often. I know I used Waninkoko's menu installers for most menu upgrades since around 3.4, so I'm not sure if that affected something or not.

Has anyone seen anything even remotely like this?

    When I owned my pizza place many years ago, we didn't have a cash register at all, every employee was given a "bank" of small bills at start of shift. Then everyone pocketed the money and made change, and I'd cash everyone out at end of shift. One time we had a gunman come in to rob me and wanted to know where's the cash register. I told him we don't take cash, only credit, and he left with nothing. Cops caught him even.

    My wifeys aunt gave her some gold coins in her will when she passed last year, and the tax man was gonna tax her a gift tax on it, but our accountant said if she sells the gold and put that money into a 5 year CD, it will be untaxable. So she did, and now IRS saying they want a income tax on the gold coin sale. Damn taxman always greedy.
