PS2 WINHIIP Hard Drive Size Misread

Post by NeedDream »

Hello.
I am Using WINHIIP 1.7.6. with a 250 gb Maxtor harddrive. Immediately WINHIIP recognizes the harddrive as 233 gb. But after I start loding games onto it it stops around 112 gb used and says only about 12 gb remaining and won't add anymore iso saying "not enough room"
What can I do to fix this. I even tried a fresh format using WINHIIP.
:cry:

This has to do with a 127 gb limit present in the original hdloader. Look for an option related to 48 bit lba and enable it in winhiip. Note that you will need to use an updated version of hdloader with this 48 bit lba hack - this should be easy to find though.
