Make sure your Drive is plugged into Port 0 like in this image https://i.imgur.com/zNrAp5o.png
in usb loader i set it to both ports but ok
k
and are u using flash drive or hdd
1.8 tb hard drive formatted to fat 32
is it fat32 and MBR?
if you dont know what that is
Check if the partition style is MBR: https://www.howtogeek.com/245610/how-to-check-if-a-disk-uses-gpt-or-mbr-and-how-to-convert-between-the-two/
its probably that i just right clicked it and pressed format
what if its exfat
just check it
because you definetly need a 3rd party software to do that
ye i did download a thing off google
bcause windows is annoying
ok
^
im copying the contents of the drive so i dont loose anything
ill do that straight after
its still only at 30% lmao
ill ping u when it finnishes and i do this
sure
its really that slow?
Or they have the entire Nintendo game collection
dude theres no way
ok then do it
fat32, mbr
It’s fat. 32
Format your USB drive: The drive should be 2tb or smaller, formatted to MBR and have a single primary FAT32 partition with 32kb (32768) or 64kb (65536) cluster/allocation unit size. Double check the partition style is MBR: https://www.howtogeek.com/245610/how-to-check-if-a-disk-uses-gpt-or-mbr-and-how-to-convert-between-the-two/
Drive is 64gb or less: Format it to FAT32 with 32kb (32,768 bytes) cluster / allocation unit size. Drive is larger than 64gb: Format it to FAT32 with 64kb (65,536 bytes) cluster / allocation unit size. If the drive is larger than 32GB, you will need third party software like GUIFormat or Wii Backup Manager to format your drive to FAT32 Wii Backup Manager: https://wii.guide/wiibackupmanager GUIFormat: http://ridgecrop.co.uk/index.htm?guiformat.htm
