    Well I don't know what you've done as the wads I told you to install will not upgrade a 3.2E to 4.1E only a system update will do that to 4.3E then you would have to softmod it again.

    If it sees the games on the drive but takes minutes to load them what the make an model of the drive, I hope it isn't a USB powered drive?

    If after trying to load it goes back to USB Loader GX and shows 12 Wii channels thats because it can't find or read the drive so it adds the channels in place of games.

    What are you using to add these games to the drive?

      I am using a 16 gig flash drive and I transferred the game via Wii backup manager.. On the loader on the bottom lefthand side it says load games I click on that and another box opens and it says loading and a countdown which says 12 mins or so....The only thing I have done is everything you told me about I have not upgraded it ..so it did it on something I've loaded re mmm and the ios's

        Well as I've said I can't see anything wrong with your last sysCheck the only query I had was the first one showed 3.2E and the last one 4.1E which to me its done a system update. Now if you have let the Wii do a system update it would now be 4.3E. There are apps I think that will update your Wii to a newer version, make sure you know what every app does in the apps folder.

        I don't know what more to suggest as I've added 4 wbfs games in the wbfs folder on a NTFS formatted 4GB USB flash drive. I put it in the Wii and ran USB Loader GX and all 4 games showed and they played. I would seriously look at getting a bigger mains powerd HDD to add your games onto.

        You could try formatting it NTFS then add the games on it. The later USB Loaders support NTFS drives.

            Welcome to DK.

            I can't really tell you about GameCube games as I don't use them. Before we start guessing whats wrong with your Wii we need to see a sysCheck19 report as instructed in that link to make sure you have all the correct IOS's installed.

            Whats happened to DK over the past few days no part of the forum has shown up, have it been down for maintenance?

            Update:

            I've found out why DK wasn't showing. http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...oblems-321034/

              Hey I'm also having trouble. I downloaded a couple games to my 32gb flash drive and I believe usb loader has read that it's there but I have no idea how to find and install those games. Any help would be appreciated. I have mmm with the cios wads and whatnot so no worries there.

                Well you must have read other post on here.

                Post a sysCheck19 report as instructed in that link so I can see which IOS's you've installed.

                      Thats a typical Wii thats only been softmodded with 17 IOS's that are Stub.

                      Now you have sysCheck.csv on the root of the SD card from your sysCheck.

                      This has been posted many times on here if you browse?

                      Download ModMii6.2.7 and run it from Windows. Use the SU option from the main menu and find the location of the sysCheck.csv from the sysCheck. That will download all missing wads and apps to COPY_TO_SD sub folder just add all files and folders to the SD card.

                      ModMii only installed 2 d2x v8.0 wads download d2x v8 Final wad pack and install all 7 wads when you install the other wads.

                      Put the SD card back in the Wii and run Homebrew. Run IOS236 Installer v5 Mod first before you install any other wads. Multi Mod Manager should be the first app listed select it and load it. Once running scroll down to WAD Manager and press 'A' that will default to all wads in the wad folder. If you want to install all wads shown just press 1 that will list all wads you want to install press 'A' again to install them all.

                      Watch for the Installed OK message after each one. If any don't say that message make a note of the wad name and back out. Scroll down to the wad that didn't install and press the + button the put a green + next to it then press 'A' to see that wads name listed then press 'A' to install again.

                      Download PriiLoader 0.7 add it to the SD card and run it from Homewbrew and set it to block online and disc updates, you can turn off the 'A' safety prompt on startup I do.

                      If you have to update to 4.3 then the Shopping Channel may work. If it doesn't without doing another system update don't bother just install my RVL-Shopping-21 with Multi Mod Manager

                      Do another sysCheck to make sure everything installed correctly and post that.

                        Wow! that was quick! you are the man!

                        Is there a problem running modmii under XP? It just crashes saying:

                        ModMii Launcher has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience

                        Should I use another computer? I only have one at home

                        Thanks

                            No ModMii works on all Windows versions with a web connection providing you extract all files to a folder and run Modmi.exe.

                                I assume your using USB Loader GX 3.0? Yes you can download the forwarder wad USB Loader GX-UNEO_Forwarder_5_1_AHBPROT.wad and add it to the wad folder on the SD card and install it with MMM.

                                Do you mean apps on the SD card?

                                You will need Multi Mod Manager (MMM) to install any wads, did you update the Shopping Channel with my RVL-Shopping-21, but after that you can delete it. The Forecast Channel and News Channel aren't available any more and you can't remove them from Channels so you may as well select them and press 'A' & 'B' buttons and drag them to the right.

                                You need to leave USB Loader GX else it won't work. The Forwarder Channel is like a Windows short-cut to USB Loader GX on the SD card.

                                If you delete PriiLoader of the SD card check that it still works because there are ini files that it uses. Turn off the Wii Hold the Reset button as the Wii it starting up.

                                You can delete other apps so the kids don't mess with them but keep a backup on your computer. There are other apps you can add to the SD card WiiEarth is like Google Earth. Playstats is an app that shows you how many time each game has been played and for how long. Rokoban is like the Sokoban game where you push blocks into a finish area. Mahjongg Wii is a Mahjongg game, very good. There are loads of games you can add to the SD card Wii Games

                                There is Configurable USB Loader and WiiFlow if you want to try those as each USB Loader has different features, they also have Forwarder Channels.
