Is sleep mode turned off? if your hdd formatted correctly? how up to date are your cIOS?

I think it is fomatted correctly. I do a softmod in guide softmod any wii today so dont really know. How can i chek power settings?

the hdd needs to be formatted correctly not the wii...

and check this out for your hdd sleep/standby mode
FreeAgent | Go, FreeAgent | Desk, FreeAgent | XTreme | Seagate

Yes HDD is formatted to WBFS with WBFS manager and tried fat32 also

So turn off sleep mode and then if problem still exists run a system check. there is a link in my signature.

Ok thank you i will try and give you answer

also check in your loader setting if it set to search from your usb and if it plugged into the right port on the wii.

it says not drives found i use Seagate hdd like internal and i put it into abigs player and i can use it normally as external hdd

if its formatted to wbfs how do you use it as a normal hdd???
