I'm not sure if this is software problem or a hardware problem or a NOOB problem.
Just recently, i upgraded to a Seagate 500GB external drive for my files. This means my old 80GB external drive (USB-IDE enclosure) will be promoted to the Wii. SO here's what I did:
1. Created a 25GB partition on the 80GB external drive and formatted it using WBFS Manager.
2. Installed games on it no prob.
3. When i open NEOGamma or USB Loader, the games show up.

4. Then when I load a game, the external drive beeps and the red light turns green.
5. Game hangs.

Force reset to get back to Wii menu
This never happens when I was using my 8GB USB flash drive. Where do you think I went wrong? To those who uses external hard drives (enclosures) how do you fix this?
Thanks in advance genius guys! More power!
