Hacking USB Loader GX sends me back to home menu

[pengypikmin]

A couple weeks ago I was using usb gx and I tried to update it. Unfortunately when it finished updating I could no longer open the channel and it sent me back to the home menu. I was using a wad so I didn't have the boot.dol which I downloaded to play the games. This is very annoying as my actual copies are very beat up so I open usb gx a lot. I have tried reinstalling the wad and using a fowarder. I would very much appreciate any help on this subject.

My Wii:
firmware 4.3
wad manager 1.7
USB loader GX 2.0
Cios 249 rev 21

Please help.

- Uninstall the .wad.
- Get the HBC version.
- Install a forwarder channel, if you want.

You need IOS58 installed for the channel version or the forwarder to work, or else it will just get you back to Wii menu.
Though, you should already have it if you are on 4.3

You can try the older forwarder (from 16.06.2009), and place boot.dol on your SD:/apps/usbloader_gx/boot.dol

I had the same problem about a month ago. Exactly the same thing. Tried updating USBloader, and after that it sent me back to the system menu. I finally gave up and installed the old version again. So I'm sorry to say I have no solution....

FYI, usb loader gx 2.1 is out.
It has real time 3d cover view under the "details" section of the game.
Comes in two versions: cios 249 version and Cios 222 version.

Also make sure you get the version from the official site and install that on your sd or USB drive.
Delete all config files etc, before updating.
