Hi, so I just homebrewed my wii yesterday using the wii.hacks.guide tutorial. My goal was to be able to play my gamecube backups from a usb so my brother can have my gamecube. However, I have hit a wall. usbloadergx boots to a blank ui and is then stuck unless i hard power off. wiiflow also boots to loading animation and needs to be hard powered off.


my homebrew and game backups are all on a 32gb sandisk flash drive. it is fat32 formatted MBR with 8192 byte cluster size. i also tried 32kb clusters. there is no extra space surrounding the partition according to gparted. my cISO's have been updated according to the wii.hacks.guide instructions. where did i go wrong in my process? i am totally out of ideas :( I know usb flash isn't the ideal way to load game backups, but I don't have an SD card or external drive and I would like to make use of what I have instead of ordering a new one..

Not sure what "wii.hacks.guide tutorial" you used. Tutorial overload :(
For what it's worth, just use ModMii. That will send you in the right direction.

I cannot link to the site because of new user restrictions, but just search for "wii.hacks.guide". It's one of the first results on DDG. It's a pretty thorough tutorial and I don't feel like it misinformed me at all.

I tried using ModMii as you suggested, but it did not resolve the problem or provide any additional information, as I seemingly already have everything set up correctly on my USB drive.

I'm attaching a copy of my SysCheck to this post. If anyone could review it, I would appreciate it!!!! I'm still at a dead end as to what the problem is.

I will assume that you are using "Nintendont" (?).
try using Nintendont directly (no USBL GX). See how you go.
Sorry, don't have time to scroll through your Syscheck.

    My insurance has a thing called, " Nope, we aren't paying for that." that they like to use on us all the time. Then we play the "Ok we will go to some other insurance company." then they miraculously say ok we will pay for that.
