Alright, I found out that there is a 48bit version of HDLoader which will allow you to use THE FULL size of the hd. If i format it with this version. Will my version of hdloader recognize it? I don`t know which version i have either.

IF you format an HDD with 48-bit LBA to a size beyond 128GB, and install any partition (be it a game or a homebrew partition) that uses this size, then any version of HDLoader that only has 28-bit LBA will freeze when trying to read the partitions. (And that needs to be done every time it starts up.)

So if you use 48-bit LBA to format a large disk, then you also need 48-bit LBA in the HDLoader version used to run games off that disk.
