I'm pretty sure you go into the menu of whatever emulator you are using, and just change the loader to usb instead of sd.
Which emulator in specific are you using? I can check it for you if this still doesn't help. I only load from external for Genplus and Mednafen though.

Re: Thoughts/reviews on Wii emulators?
Hey I got some questions in regards too WiiMednafen, specifically how to run PC Engine games.
With Ys Book 1 and 2, it says the file is too big - I'm currently extracting it since it was still in .rar form, so hopefully it works.
Was trying out Rondo of Blood, and it says it did not recognize the file. Don't I just put the SYSCard3. Bios into the WiiMednafen directory, or do I have to extract it or something?
I just tried out Mednafen and it's awesome, never thought I'd be playing Virtual Boy. And yeah, I'm able to play games from a USB.

How much was that 50 pack of DVD-Rs? You could fit any Genesis games you'd ever want to play on a $5 4gb SD card, unless its Sega CD games you are trying to get working?

for less than that you can get a 32 Gig sd card, this is the same one i use on my wii and i have basically every retro game ever made on it, including all the sega cd games worth playing.
