yes it all loads off disc ok it has been working off the hd but it is a bit hit and miss sometimes when you get the games list up and you are scrolling through the covers to select a games it crash's too and resets back to the wii menu

really doing my head in now would it be a prob with the gx usb loader
would i need to install a new loader
i have connected the hd to the computer and checked that the games are there and all is good on that side

Maybe a diff loader migfht work.

Have you tried another hdd or memory stick to see if the same thing happens? Can you try the hdd on another wii?

Have you tried the other usb port?

Most drives will work. I use western digital ones and have never had a problem.

Why do you want to partion the drive? If you use configurable USB loader you can format to fat32 and then you can use the drive for other things on your pc or wii. If you use configurable USB loader you do not need to format the drive to WBFS.
