Bear with me as I'm kinda technologically challenged these days.
I soft modded my Wii about ten years ago using the forums and tutorials on wiiso but looks like that site has now closed its doors.
Fast forward ten years later ...the wii has been in a closet for the last 5 years ...kids took it out and dropped the harddrive that had all the games on it and broke it, okay no problem I have another 1TB harddrive (Western Digital Elementis ) and all the games backed up ...format a 32gb partition and format it FAT32 and use WIIBackupManager to put the games on and create a WBFS folder.
Fire up the WII and plug USB drive into outter most USB port and click USB Loader GX, it loads for a second and shows 12 Wii symbols then throws me back to the homescreen. Tried CFG Loader as well and does same thing.
The Wii is 4.3.
Not sure where to go from here ....thank you so much for anyone's time in walking an old guy through how to fix for the grand kids lol
