Yes. Make sure you delete your /config folder from the SD card.
My FAT partition is only 5GB.

The covers don't work well at all on the r468 (a few sporadic covers might show up here and there) but work well on the 487 version.
The really annoying thing is that each game has to crash or freeze the Wii the first time it's loaded then works thereafter.

Could be a bad rip of the game.Enkera said:Mario Kart Wii keeps giving me a black screen after the wrist-strap warning,
any ideas?

I have no problem with list and carousel modes, but in grid mode the covers do not load.
I dont think the code dumps any data to your hdd, it certainly wouldnt be a few gigs worth and it wouldnt dump it to the wbfs partition either since only games can go there. Your wbfs partition could just be corrupted, it can happen if you delete games or have a bad rip.mickh said:Hi all
I am experiencing some odd behaviour with my USB HDD after a code dump in USB Loader GX.
Yesterday I installed Call of Duty (World At War) to my HDD. After the install I went to run the game and I got a code dump! I rebooted the Wii and HDD and the game then worked fine, but since this the Free Space on my HDD has reduced by nearly 100GB.
Where do the code dumps get dumped to? Could it be marking sectors on the HDD incorrectly? Now when using WBFS Manager my HDD reads that there is 390GB Used Space, but I only have 70 games installed, most of which are less than 2GB.
I have posted query with WBFS Manager to see if it is a bug there, but it is a coincidence that it has happened after a code dump with USB Loader GX.
Help anyone!
Thanks

Well im not really sure of the best way, but id go with 1.5 or gx to rip games directly. And IF your hdd is corrupted you'd have to back it up and reformat it. I dont know how to tell if a game is a bad rip, maybe if things dont load right or even at all. But id go ahead and reinstall the game just to be sure. Others have had problems with running games the first time too, but they mever had the data problem...mickh said:Thanks Chaos Punk
Is there any way of knowing I have a bad rip? All the games seem to be loading fine!
If there is a bad rip and I remove it will there still be corruption on the drive?
Would I be better extracting all the ISOs as CISOs, reformat the HDD and add them all again?
Sorry for the questions, but I am new to the USB Loader thing. Finding it great though.
Thanks

Also meant to ask, what the best way to rip the games is. I have been using USB Loader 1.5 originally to rip discs. I then used WBFS Manager to copy downloaded ISOs. I have used the USB Loader GX install option for some also.
Thanks
