Hi all,

I´d like to use all my dolphin´s ISOs directly from a pendrive (500GB), but when I move my games to it, I can´t start any game.

Already tried in exFAT, FAT32 and NTFS.

Thank you!

There shouldn't be any particular barriers to doing that. What goes wrong when you try to start a game?

All ISOs are working well because I can play them normally when they are in HD.


For example: I can play Mega Man 10 but Mega Man 9 does not, and both are in .wad

The problem starts when I copy them to the pendrive because the Dolphin does not see them.

In rare cases, when Dolphin find the ISO, this message appears:
[color=#000000]"is an invalid GCM/ISO file, or is not a GC/Wii ISO"[/color]

That's weird... Could you take a screenshot showing the folder that the games are in on the USB drive?

As you can see, Dolphin does not see Mega Man 9 (.wad format)

Does it work if you use File > Open rather than Dolphin's game list?

If the game is in "wad" format. It is necessary to run the system menu of the wii 4.3.

This happens all the time:

No, it's not. And even if there had been NAND problems, it wouldn't lead to the error message that blazeharris is getting.
