USB Loader GX - Game crashes on load

Hello all,

First of all, I would like to say that this forum is great, I'v read a lot of tutorials here and topics in which lots of members help each other out.

Second, I'm a n00b at all this Wii stuff, so if you can, please be patient with me ;)

Third, I have been having some issues with USB Loader GX.

I recently got a Wii, version is 4.2E, and i used ShadowSonic2 guide for softmodding my Wii.
Everything went okay (although I'm not sure about this part: Step 3 - Restoring The Bug Into IOS36).Anyway, USB Loader GX 2.0 is running on my Wii, I'm using a Maxtor 1TB Basics Desktop as an USB device, formatted with NTFS, and has a wbfs folder with .wbfs files.
The loader runs okay, I see the games, I can even get the covers, but when it try to run the games, I just get a black screen, with nothing on it.. after waiting a few minutes I just turned off my Wii.

I'v tried 2 games: Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 & Call of Duty - Black Ops.

What could cause this? Am I doing something wrong?
Is there some kind of a report that I can output to see if I did something wrong?

Thanks In Advance to all the helpers!

Try a different loader like CFG.. If you scan the forum you will see lotsa people having issues with GX.

Or

wait for a different response. ;)

Oh but introduce yourself here first
Introduce Yourself

I use WiiFlow with fat32 drive. Works great.

Dont know about Pro evolution soccer but I have to load Blac Ops with IOS 250. When you sleect the game go to settings and select game load and change the IOS to load game to 250.

When you update to gx 2.0 you have to delete everything about the old gx; config files.

Download this gx package after you delete evrything gx related from your sd card to "start fresh"

Good Luck:)

I use gx v2.0 with ios 249 rev17 for most of the games. For black ops I use ios 250 rev 21 base 57 "I think that's the base"

It will only work from IOS250 if it has the right cIOS installed to it (meaning with a base of 57). IOS250 is just a slot and gives no indication of what is installed to it.

He followed shadows guide so he will not have the cIOS needed to run it with IOS250.

I think I'm a bit confused..

My Wii 4.2E was a "Virgin" one, meaning this is the first time it has ever been softmodded, or even used for that matter. Meaning there is no older version of nothing really..

Reading the Wii USB Devices Compatibility List for my HD, it says:

Works with USB Loader, but will not work if the partition is the entire TB. If using gparted - add boot flag to all your partitions.

Could this might be the problem?

about the IOS and CIOS, this is the part that I really really don't understand.. I'v been a lot of guides and topics about this but still didn't understand completely what's the deal with it.. anyway so do i need to install IOS250?

This will explain about ios and cios.

Thanks playerkp420, I think I get it..

but still, how can I solve this issue? if this is a ios\cios issue, how can i tell which ones are installed so i can install the missing one's?

You could do a system check and compare with one of these guys.
