Nice, I'll have to try this out as I have a second partition on my external hard drive just chillin there at the moment.

So does this loader only work with your own dumped games, as it doesn't seem as if that partitioning can be recognized on my computer.

I cant get many of my "backups" to work,tho I think it may be the fact that I am downloading pal and not NTSC. Plus my WII HDD seem to die on me last night so all I got left is a 60 gb to try out all my backups with. So far mario kart and super mario galaxy works great.

That's right folks, That's 5/5 w00t with a side of love.

This is some impressive stuff really. Didn't find the process difficult at all. Thanks much for posting this Seth. I don't follow the wii scene much, so without mformature and your post I would still be in the dark.

Not true actually. There's an app out there making the rounds that allows you to transfer the stuff to the partition. I used it to get MadWorld on there. Works a charm.

Oh sorry, I got confused and thought he was replying to my older post asking if you could load isos on from your computer. That's what I get for not paying much attention.

Nope, I had the NTSC version and it worked smooth as can be.
