select the game in nintendont and start the game. Exit the game. send me the 
nincfg from the root of the drive that has the games on it.

Look in the root of the sd card. If their is a nincfg.bin send it.

Try without the sd card inserted

There was a nincfg.bin on root of the SD card.
Without the SD card inserted, the game try to start automatically but it freeze 
before. (see attached "freezepoint screenshot.jpg"). After one minute, the Wii 
shuts down.

Sounds like two seprate problems.

For the freezing problem. Pwoer off the wii. eject the sd card. Power on the 
wii. Start nintendont from the homebrew channel. see if it still freezes.

For the auto start problem. are their copies of cfg or nintemdont on the sd 
card?
With the sd card inserted. Start cfg. have it start a different gc game. do not 
press anything on the controllers once nintendont starts. power off the wii. 
send me the nincfg.bin from booth the sd and usb. label the files so I can tell 
whare it came from.

I powered on the wii without th SD card inserted, I started nintendont from HBC 
then Nintendont didn't freeze but I didn't had the chance to select the game 
myself, the last game I tried to start with cfg has started automatically.

No there is no copy of neither CFG nor Nintendont on the SD card.
After starting a GC game with the SD inserted in CFG and the Wii powered off 
once the Nintendont game selection menu had came there was no nincfg.bin on the 
root of SD card but there was a new meta.xml on SD's root.

I'm having similar issues with CFG launching via Nintendont here.

Only tried this on a Wii U as of now.

Nintendont and CFG have their standard folders in the Apps folder on the USB 
drive, plus CFG has it's othere usb-loader folder in the root of the USB.

CFG is version 70r78. Nintendont is (I think) 2.209. That's what its meta.xml 
says anyway. Both were downloaded Nov 8th, 2014

Nothing Nintendont, CFG, or anything Wii/Wii U related at all on the SD card.

Without an SD card inserted, Nintendont can't find my USB drive's games (even 
though Nitnendont itself launched from USB). With an SD card inserted, finds 
the USB games without problem.

Setting a gamecube game to use Nintendont and launching it in CFG results in 
Nintendont running identically to launching Nintendont directly from HBC. I 
have to go and select the game and everything again.

Wii games run fine in CFG, as do GC games using devolution.

It sounds like you have a nintendot problem that needs to be corrected first. 
Are you sure you dont have nintendont on the sd: ?

remove sd card
start cfg
tell it to start a gc game
when nintendont comes up press B to abort the auto boot
power off the wii u
send the usb:\nincfg.bin file
power back on the wii u
use homebrew channel to start nintendont. Does it auto boot the game?

Thanks for trying to help. I can try what you say later when I'm back at my 
system, but it would be really weird if nintendont was on the sd, like gremlins 
snuck into the house and put it there weird, because I've never used this sd 
card for wii/u stuff before, just grabbed it and stuck it in when I read a post 
somewhere that having a sd card in the slot could fix the problem with 
nintendont not finding USB games. I generally never use sd for wii stuff, just 
usb.

Okay, this is crazy, but after taking out the SD card, cfg loads the game right 
instead of just loading up the nintendont menu.

I did double check, and the only Wii files on the SD card were nincfg.bin and 
meta.xml, both of which, based on their timestamps, must have been generated by 
nintendont. Nintendont's loader also now seems to find usb games without an SD 
card inserted. Weird, I didn't update or change anything.

Thanks for taking the time to respond to me, if you hadn't I might not have 
tried without the sd card in there and never gotten it working.

Hi, I had this problem as well. Nintendont is installed on usb and the games 
are on usb.

As soon as an sd card is inserted Nintendont creates a meta.xml file on the sd 
card when started from cfg usb loader and Nintendont wont auto boot the game. 
If I remove the sd card everything works fine.

Is it possible somehow to have an sd card inserted or do I need to remove the 
sd card everytime I want to play gamecube games?

Would be thankful for an anwer.
