Sorry for the late post but I've just got back from a 2 weeks holiday in USA.

I don't see much wrong with that sysCheck only your IOS236 is an older version 54321 my IOS236-v5-Mod is 65535, the disc art won't cause this problem. I assume your using USB Loader GX 3.0?

Is every game on your drive showing a blank screen?

hi keith, hope you had a good holiday.
yeah i have the latest gx and its only some games doing it, like lego star wars 3 wouldn't work so i deleted it and got a new one then it worked fine. but a few more games are doing it like skylanders giants.
also i've installed your new IOS236 but unfortunately no joy.

thanks bowie

I don't have LEGO Star Stars 3 but I have 5 other LEGO games that all work. I do have Skylanders Giants - PAL - SKYP52 but that needs USB wireless receiver/Portal of Power which you only get with the original game.

[bowie]

i have the portal of power, got it with the first skylanders game. the problem i got is all my games used to work but now a few have stopped. what i think may of happened is because my drive is formatted to wbfs, sometimes when you delete a game i think it can remove some files from the game next to it?
don't know how i'm going to get around it.

[Keithuk]

I've deleted games with USB Loader GX and WBFS Manager and all the others still work.

[bowie]

yeah i've never had a problem doing it in the past, but that is the only answer i've been able to find

"There is NO good reason to be using a WBFS formatted drive and WBFS Manager anymore. If you are consistently adding and removing games you end up with unusable sections of the drive. WBFS formatted drives need the game in one continuous spot and write games directly after each other. So if you had a 3GB game you deleted from the middle of the drive then the next 2 games you install are 2GB each you now have a 1GB gap (because it will fill in the deleted spot but then skip to end of drive to write the whole second game) and NO program to defrag and condense the gaps. You don't have that issue with a drive containing a file allocation table..."

not my words btw
