Sounds like an old mod that may need to be updated.

Check that your newly installed Wii games are in the same format (ISO, WBFS or.. ?) as the ones that are already there, verify the folders/games are named accordingly.
Also try using WiiBackupManager to transfer new games.

Try to post more info on your folder & file structures (with names/titles).
What storage is being used ?
Even better, copy/paste a SysCheck report to narrow down your issues.

I bought the Wii off eBay for £70 with about 40 Wii and game cube games installed with Gx loader. Everything was working fine all the settings in place by the guy then I copied over few GameCube and Wii games in to the correct fders turned Wii on and only the previously existing GameCube games would show up no Wii at all. So I went back into hardrive and removed games then added the Wii game with Wiibackupmanager and copied and pasted the gamecube games.


Now when I turn Wii on loads up I can open Gx loader but it only shows the original GameCube games.


Checked paths and file names all seems fine all settings are matching people on youtube in various videos
