Is anyone else out there having problems with the main software ?

Since I got mine, I've had to pull the plug on the thing 3 times, twice because the machine locked up on trying to access the disc channel, and once because it lost all of the controllers ans I couldn't re-synch them.

Quick question for lucky PAL Wii owners - has anyone out there tested the 480p mode with component cables? Do the PAL games indeed run in progressive scan?

Make sure you add your email to your address book. Then wait for a confirmation email. (check your junk mail, that's where mine appeared)

I put in my micro-SD card, waited, waited some more, and then gave up and pressed B, only for the system to lock up. Tried again, same thing.

 

I know that the SD is in FAT, as opposed to FAT32 format. Could this be the reason? It also has lots of othing things that aren't photos. Any ideas, gentlemen?

 

EDIT: Can GC saves be transferred to harddrive?

I'm just not getting these SD cards 100%. I plan on getting some VC games and stuff, do I really need one?

 

I don't think you need one just yet, I've got one, put some photo's on it and some music did abit of slideshow fun etc...

 

but to be honest, unless u plan to download tons of VC games, which lets face it isn't gonna happen at the moment cos they aren't that great.

How is playing gamecube games? You need a GC pad and memory card or can you use the internal memory and classic controler? Is it easy with the connection to the controlers being on the side?
