I Tried I Formatted to almost every format there is then formatted them to wbfs then i formatted it to ntfs and adding the iso directly but it still freezes my computer

 

[nitrostemp]

sounds like your computer doesnt like the drive

 

[DKAngel]

maybe the controler that is over your caddy is damaged? or there is a problem with the usb ports?

have u a- tried a diff cable?
tried diff ports/
tried a diff hdd?
tried with a diff computer?

i have tried a different computer diffrent usb port dnt have another usb like this one or a different hdd and it works fine as a ntfs and i transfer other files to the hard drive too

 

[twinkymartinez]

yeah but it works as a ntfs and i could put movies on it and transfer the movies to another computer

not a great way to do things....

but try converting the iso's to .wbfs (saving them on your pc), then try copying them to your harddrive

 

[twinkymartinez]

i tried to that to but it still freezes my computer too i even wait to make sure its not completley frozen i give it like a hour or more then nothing

 

[XFlak]

does it freeze when its converting, or when you're transfering games to the HD?

if its the first one, its a problem with your computer, if its the second one, its a problem with your hard drive.

Maybe its the WBFS manager?
What about trying Wii Game Manger (or redownloading Wii Backup Manager)

 

[twinkymartinez]

i tried redownloading wii backup manager but i will try wii game manger i think i tried that too but would you guys/girls know why it would say cannot open drive no error when i tried formatting it with wintool

if its the first one, its a problem with your computer, if its the second one, its a problem with your hard drive.

when i transfer it like freezes the bar and takes forever but sometimes freezes my computer from working like im doing it right now and its been almost 12 hrs according to it and its only almost half way through and it poped up saying it cannot find the drive no more but its still adding it to the drive

Have you tried formatting the drive connected to the Wii via Gx loader and installing a game from a disk all through the Wii ?? It should take about 4~6 mins for a full disk (4GB+) and about 40 seconds for say Super Mario (around 300mb)
