Hi guys. As the title says, I cannot get any file manager apps to load. Wiiexplorer, Wiiflow, USBloader are all stuck at mounting devices or loading.
I have a normal Wii, firmware 4.3E.
I installed Priiloader and cIOS as per wii.guide tutorials.
Here is my syscheck report https://pastebin.com/By3gaKWR

What did I do wrong?
Thanks!

I used WiiMod Lite and removed IOS224 (hermes). This does not yet solve the problem. The USB loader still does not launch

I copied the apps folder to USB and removed the sd card, now the usb loader loads, but why does it not accept the sd card being inserted?

Perform a chkdsk on the drive using a Windows PC to help troubleshoot your issue.

  1. Connect the drive to your PC
  2. Search in windows for cmd then press enter.
  3. In the command prompt, type chkdsk x: but replace x with the letter for your drive.
  4. Screenshot the output.

We are looking to verify the following:

  1. No issues are found.
  2. If Windows finds problems, close and reopen the command prompt
  3. Type chkdsk /f x: but replace x with the letter for your drive.
  4. When it asks to convert lost chains to files, type n
  5. You have 32kb (32768 bytes) in each allocation unit.
  • If you have a different allocation unit size backup your data and reformat to FAT32 with the correct allocation unit size.

# orchid pulsar SD card is probably corrupt

Thanks a lot mate! The SD card was FAT32, but with 8192 bytes allocation size. I reformatted it with 32kb size and it now works. I didn't even realized that was a problem and I didn't even knew.
