I installed the latest usb loader (16-06-2009) with latest dol(543). i have cios 13b installed on 249. When I try to run the loader. It no longer recognizes my usb hard drive. It use to work fine before. It asks my if i want to use ios249...i select it and it searches for the drive for 30 seconds and does not find it. If i choose ios222, the wii completely freezes. The only way to unfreeze is to hold down on the power button on the wii. Is there something that i am missing? I have never had hard drive detection errors before.

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks

Finally I got the USB loader GX working. But only when it is in the first USB port. The second USB I use for the network card. I don't have Wireless yet.

Isn't it possible to have both USB devices attached?

Hi I was just hoping that the ios reload for cios222 would be able to be used with waninkoko cios249 soon. So I can play house of the dead 2 and restart the wii without the wii going to the black screen of death. I only ask because I don't know if anyone is even working on this. Well I hope it is going to be in the rev soon. Thanks for all the hard work.

Edit: Can someone tell me how to get cios 222 to install and not make it so that every time I restart the game it gos to black screen. Thanks.

Edit 2: Ok so I gess it is not cios 222 but the ios block reload that stops it from returning to wii menu. And that is ok with me, at least for now. Because I would rether have the ios block reload then the return to wii menu once game is started. So thanks and rember alot of us loves this loader so keep up the good work.

What I believe is happening with the black screen when you people are returning to the home menu is caused by the IOS reload blocking. You are blocking the Wii from loading the IOS version that you home menu wants to use and forcing it to use 222. The system menu wasn't made to run under 222 and 222 wasn't made to run the system menu.

It's like you are forcing your Wii to run windows 95 and trying to boot photoshop cs4. It just won't work.

Well looks like this loader is almost done. I am using waninkoko rev12 as default cios and turned on the anti 002 fix for gostbusters. I use cios 222 in game settings for house of the dead 2 with block ios reload turned on and use reset and not wii menu to restart the wii with this game. On Mortal Kombat I just changed out the mk.dol file with the main.dol file on the iso and that games works great to. Now all that is left is for giantpune to add support for the grid mod for 3/4 tvs. I was going to just move the grid button off the screen in in my 3/4 theme, but I don't thank it will take giantpune all that long befor he add this support. For giantpune I know it would be a lot of work and you already have alot to do, but I would like to see a grid view of 3 rows and maby 10 across if they all fit of just a straight grid with no curve. Maby by pressing down from the curved grid mod. But don't get me wrong your work in the grid mod is very cool indeed. I just want something easier to see is all. Well thanks again this loader is the best I thank we will ever see.

Fantastic. I was able to roll back to rev10 and still run Ghostbusters and the new Indy game. Now there's no reset problems.

I am having a problem with Carnival Games Mini-golf. Anyone else get this one to work, or is there a known problem? (I've looked but didn't find anything).

it seems like i'm constantly having to delete my config folder to make gx load configs and images. before it was just after update, but now it seems to be after each reboot.

is this normal, or am i just special

---------------------------------------

by the by. latest gx build, installed wanin rev10, applied the anti 002 in the general settings and the 002 fix in the game settings, and now indy, ghostbusters and my sims racing all load and play without issue.

thanks you thank you thank you!

This loader is getting better and better. Thx a lot for the great work.

I found a small problem. Last night I turned off my WiFi Access Point by mistake. Then I tried to update the USB loader using the update function. This resulted into a code dump.
