What have you got working?
The USB Loader?
Are all your games loading ok?

Guys, I had Punch Out working fine on USB Loader 1.0, but its not loading with 1.1.

Any idea why?

Any suggestion?

It all depends on what you wanna do!
If you wanna customize & revamp the Wii, then GX is great with that!

Cool I've been trying to use GX loader and the original one neither seems to read my USB drive. Ive even preformated it as the correct format and it still displays no partion found which should mean that the drive has been found but then get an -6 error (with original loader) cant think of anything I'm doing wrong unless its the USB drive (works under windoz)

Burn them onto disc & they should work great without crashing!
Virtua Tennis is awesome.
Will let you know abt Tiger Woods.

Well still no luck with my drive but managed to get it working with a USB key.

What USB/HDD drives/Caddies are people using here? Especially UK available ones?

I read somewhere, possibly earlier in this thread about avoiding using Seagate Drives, however I'm using a 400 gig Seagate Barracuda and its performimg like a dream !!

I have a feeling that this issue is one of those that a drive that works ok for one persom may be troublesome for another , so basically it is a try it and see

Yumraaj - no worries, hope you are feeling better

Seasider - what caddy are you using for your Seagate?

I was thinking of going for either a Western Digital My Book Essential 500GB [ame=http://www.amazon.co.uk/Western-Digital-Essential-500GB-External/dp/B000WP0NM8/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1246912203&sr =1-8]Western Digital My Book Essential 500GB External USB: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo[/ame]

I think the Western digital seems most popular. Currently I have a Westren Digital 250GB drive in a CNM docking caddy but the Wii does not pick this up ;-( Shame..

I think it might be caddy that is the problem mate, try changing it or get another drive.
