This next step explains how to load a Wii ISO to you usb device.
The first step is to get a Wii iso backup file. (I can't tell you where.)
Plug in your usb device in your computer . Click on the WBFS Manager 2.5 icon on your desktop. A new scree n will open. Use the drop-down tab under 'Edit' in the upper left corner to choose your usb device drive letter.
(WARNING: Be very careful not to format your hard drive! Make sure you're drive number is right!)
Now click format to delete the contents on your USB device and change the format to WBFS.
(Note: You will not be able to use the USB drive only to store Wii isos because the computer operating system doesn't recognize the WBFS format).
After you're done formatting click the 'Load button to load the contents of your USB device. It's empty.
Click the 'Browse' button in the lower right corner to open a new window, locate your Wii ISO, click it, and click 'Open' in the lower right corner.
It will take a few seconds to load. You should see it in the right half of the WBFS Manager window. Hover your mouse over it to see it's game cover.
Now click 'Add to Device' to compress your Wii ISO and add it to your usb device.
It will take about 5 minutes to upload the file to a usb device.
After it's done, either close the program and take your usb device out of your computer and go to the next step, or add more games to your usb device.
Can I play .iso files through USB Loader GX with a 128gb USB Flash Drive that does not format to FAT32 (only exFAT and NTFS)? Is there anyway to force format a flash drive to FAT32? How do I setup my NTFS formatted USB to play games through USB Loader GX?

Hey all, I'm fairly new to homebrew and softmodding my Wii.
Usb Loader Gx 4.3u Homebrew
Here's my situation so far:
-My wii was recently homebrewed.
-I downloaded cIOS 249 and cIOS 250
-I downloaded Wad Manager and created a full channel for USB Loader GX (which ALLEGEDLY supports NTFS format).
-My current USB setup (which doesn't work) is NTFS format with a 4098 kb write speed. I have an apps folder that contains a folder for USB Loader GX and Nintendont. I also have a games folder with the correct configuration for Super Smash Bros Melee (I use the same setup on a 4gb sd card that works, but doesn't work on my USB setup).
I suppose my question is, how do I setup my USB flash drive to play games? Do I have to convert my iso files to something else? Where do I put the game files to get USB Loader GX to recognize it? My Wii does in fact recognize my flash drive, as evidenced on the USB Loader GX full channel telling me that I have 115 GB out of 116 GB free on the bottom screen.
I noticed when I tried downloading Mario Kart Wii from the disk on USB Loader GX that it saved as a WBFS file on my USB and DID show up as a game on my menu. The file didn't download properly, as it seemed to have froze at 100% so I reset my system, so I cannot play Mario Kart Wii through USB Loader GX.
How To Download Usb Loader Gx For Wii 4.3u
I'm just at a loss for what to do. I've gone on so many guides and forums telling me to download all these files and all these programs only to scroll down more and see that it is only for FAT32 format. I know people can attach hard drives full of game files, so why can't I use a flash drive? Can I use my NTFS formatted USB or do I need to force it with some program to format as FAT32? If I can, how should I setup my USB?
