Problem with a hard drive!!

Post by gwenn02 »

Automatically translated from French.

Hello,
I just changed my hard drive (I went from a western digital 320G to 1.5T).
I had no problem formatting it, nor putting games in wbfs on it but the issue is that when launching a game it goes back to the WII menu. I don't understand and don't really know what else to do because I've never had this problem even with 1T HDDs. If someone has an idea to suggest to me I'm all ears!! thanks for your help.

Check that your partitions are primary and active

here, with this you won't have any more problems
you can also use Wiibackupmamanger instead of WBFS

so no need for a WBFS partition, you make them in Fat32 and transfer with wiibackup

Which loader, on sd or on hdd?

How do you partition your hdd?

Have you read this?

yes I had checked the tutorial and I can only make one ntfs partition and one wbfs one or the whole dd in wbfs. under wiiflow I never had a problem! and I can't even use wiibackup since I can't make a fat partition.

to create a Fat32 partition bigger than 32giga

use easus partition master to go beyond the size limit

(it's written in the tutorial)

PS: it took 4h to partition my 2To WD HDD into 2x 1TO in Fat32
so take your time and don't forget to back up beforehand otherwise you'll have nothing left

Careful, easus partition master tends to set the partitions to logical instead of primary.

So, be careful!

yes that's true, but you just need to find the option in Easus and it's fine
