Question about installing games to HD with Free MC Boot

**Melhisedek** · 02-26-2009,02:43 PM

Hello there folks,
I installed MC Boot properly and it works, now I booted HD Loader and wanted to install a game but it is no go, it just sits there at 0%. Am I doing something wrong or?

how do you install your games ? from ISO ? or directly from cd/dvd ? and which program you are using to install the games ?

I'm sorry, it was a combo of bad media and even worse laser

Got it working now with Verbatim DVD. You can delete this thread.

Thank you for your time!

Sir,
plug that hdd to a PC running windows SO, then transfer ISO's via winhiip 1.7.6..
No need to use your disc drive.

Or if you have a router and an ethernet cable, use this guide.

I personally ended up using the Java-based app and had to register the mscomctl.ocx once installed into the system32 folder using the cmd dos box using the following command.

regsvr32.exe c:\windows\system\mscomctl.ocx

After that, I was able to not only load my games from my comp to my HDD, but vice-versa.

Oh... didn't know about this way to transfer games :O You sir deserve a nice cold beer !!!

No way....
I can only do this, apparently, with Lord Bogami's HDL Dump v. 2.1, on my ubuntu...
and it takes forever just to get a transfer only to 10%
No results with hdl_dump_gui
