Could you test your games with Wiiflow or Configurable Loader v70 and see the result ??

Did you format your USB media with this software ?? ==>http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm


To try :

Format in WBFS and see if it works with this format.

have tested with wiiflow 5.2 latest version, same black screen issue.
also deleted usbloader gx & wiiflow from sd, download again and install, same black screen issue.
tried format fat32 in wii backup manager & hp usb tool, same black screen issue.

not tried wbfs format yet, will test

Your wii is a PAL version.

Are you from Malaysia ??

Which regions (NTSC-U, NTSC-J, PAL) are your games ??

the wii is PAL Europe version. games are mix PAL and NTSC-U.
have tried launch both pal & ntsc game. have also tried changing video output to disc default, force ntsc, force pal, ntsc480 etc. also the tv is current year model and can display both ntsc & pal.
as mentioned in one of my earlier posts, I have gamecube games on the same seagate 500gb hard drive (single fat32 partition) that I am able to play using Nintendont, just the wii games wont.

anyway will try format a usb drive to wbfs and see if it works.

by the way, can usbloader gx run wii games off the sd card ? might try that too....since there is free space on it.

Hello.:)

I looked again all over your previous Posts and also agree with @jeannotte that the USB Device and/or maybe also the Cable is to verify.
Your sysCheck is perfect,USBLoader GX is on the latest Version.

By the Way: Please try to reset the USBloader GX Settings -> Global Settings -> Default Settings.
or delete the "GXGlobal.cfg" in the Folder "SD:\apps\usbloader_gx" please.

Did you updated your USBLoader GX from an previous Version or installed a clean/fresh Version 3.0 r1272 ?

Thank you for your Patience and your Help.:)

Hello.:)

This is really a tough nut to crack.:(

I looked over your Posts and see we forget some important Thing to ask:

Did you format your HDD on an Windows PC ?
Can you please check how your Drive is recognized ? MBR or GPT ?
Did you have maybe more then one Partition on it ?

reason I did the hack/mod was because the wii dvd stopped loading/ejecting discs. but I never got backup loader working despite many many tries (all my previous posts here). so I have dismantled the wii dvd to try fix it...will post in hardware section for help/dvd in fixing it.
