try an earlier version, and mighty channel while you're at it, that'll give you 2 loaders, so if a game doesn't work on Wiiflow, generally it works with mighty

WiiMC doesn't even pick up the hard drive...there's only one partition on the hard drive and it's in wbfs...

on 249 what do you have?

on 250?

etc....

the _xxx version of wiiflow is only used to launch wiiflow with that particular cIOS xxx...

I followed the tutorial to the letter...how do I know what's where?

For HDDs does it absolutely need to be plugged into mains power or can it be powered by the wii?

I have a plextor 320go would that work?

According to the tutorial I need to use Wiiflow with CIOS 249 but it doesn't work!!! :arff:

well listen I left the WII community about 2 years ago because mine got bricked, I'd advise you to wait for feedback from a pro, but back then wiiflow was the best for me, today I have no idea.... wait a bit someone will answer you quickly

Otherwise for the games do I need to go through WBFS Manager or can I simply copy the games onto the hard drive? (they're in WBFS)

OK! OK! Don't get mad I'll do it like that sir... :o

^^

...Funny that, the less stuff is left to move from my HDD the more time is left to do it...???

By the way I have the games in wbf1...what's the difference? Do I need both?

SUCCESS! Thank you so much to everyone who helped me it works perfectly! Just have to fill the HDD with games now...^^

Otherwise, I have some wbfs and want to convert them to iso to be able to put them on my HDD via wbfs manager but my Wii Converter GUI V1.6.0 stops working every time it reaches the end of the conversion...actually I can only do one conversion at a time and then I have to remove it and redownload it to do another one...a bit annoying!
