help: game wont load after start screen - hls0220 - 04-02-2012

My problem is that when i start a game it goes to the start screen, i press start (enter), it says "there is no memory file, would you like to make one", i say yes, then it goes to the screen that says "the game cant be saved would you like to play anyway" i say yes and it just goes back to the start screen... can anyone tell me why this is happening and how to fix it?

how about press a (accept) instead of b (cancel) on the format memory card screen?
:/

Fwiw, OP's profile says 3.0-.578, though it's a good idea if the rest of the hardware info were properly filled out.

every game... and if i try clicking yes on the format memory screen it just goes to the "game cant be saved would u like to continue" screen

Even if you say it's a problem for "every game", it'd be helpful to know which game's you've tried. Also, post your settings, either as text or a screenshot.

this is because you are pressing B instead of A

your settings do not matter, you are pressing the wrong button on the gamecube controller (B) which the game takes to mean no even if you have yes selected!
press A on yes at the format screen and it will work

Can you follow these directions?

sorry i just read that post, u r COMPLETLY right and now i feel really stupid... but now im getting an error message that says "could not write memory card file, are you running dolphin from a cd/dvd, or is the save file maybe write protected?" should i be worried, because the game is still working
