Blank Screen Wii Freezes Remote will not Sync... #62

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. First, hi Fix94...I see that you are working on several of the loaders now 
so you will likely remember me from issue 65 in the Open Wii Flow MOD.  This 
issue was there (still not sure we have exactly the right fix), I also see it 
in the 3.0 released version of the USB Loader GX, and now here.
2. Most of my PAL games and it seems all of my NTSC games work correctly in all 
tested version of CFG (at least up to the current r35) but "The SIMS 2: Pets" 
and "The SIMS 3" freeze the Wii with a blank black screen and the remote is not 
responsive.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would expect the game to start with the standard warning messages but instead 
I get a blank black screen and the remote is not responsive.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Testing shows that these two games (and all others tested) work in version r27 
but stop working in all versions since (yes I did test each of them ;).

Please provide any additional information below.
As I stated above this issue is happening across several of the loaders and 
actually my testing showed me exactly what I expected...that this issue started 
with the most recent change in the underlying libraries.  Version r28 is the 
first version per the notes to switch to the devkitpps r26 and libogc 1.8.11.  
Obviously I don't know which of the two is the cause but it seems that the 
latest libraries have an underlying issue with some of the games.

Since I missed a testing result in the other issue I commented on for version 
r35 I figured I had better ensure I was complete and retest r35 and the new 
r36.  I do have to report that this issue IS still in both of the two newest 
versions.

I do feel I should add the following information.  On r27 I have all of the 
system game load settings at the Default settings except for the following.  

I have the Video mode set to System Default for all games.
I have the Video Patch set to ALL for the two games reported above.

My version of CFG is loading via 249 and thus by default I am letting all the 
games load via this as well (D2X v8 Final).

If I am missing anything that I should report please let me know but I am 
really betting that it has something to do with how some percentage of the PAL 
games handle the TVPal576IntDfScale versus the TVPal574IntDfScale.  But, I also 
read that with the newest libraries the applications will not compile without 
that change.
