[solved] ide mod quality/games don't load when DS boots from IDE

[shwoaps]

>>May be problem with HDD

Yes that was the problem. Old 2.5 40gb Toshiba had this problem, it had some bad sectors reallocated. And it become noisy over time(10 years of duty in my laptop). Still, all games worked when DS was loaded from SD.

Changed with old 2.5 40gb samsung and games load with DS on HDD ok.

>>"DS game loading screen" - what you mean?
That few lines after booting game - DS doing that and that, loading filesystem etc...

* Is there any difference for game compatibility if i load DS from SD or HDD or CD(without bios mod)?

* About that faulty IDE(this happened later, and totally broke game compatibility), my DC with IDE were lying on the ground with box on top of it(for silence) and my brother kicked slightly that box. After that i can't load any game from that IDE, in any way(when DS is loaded from cd, sd or hdd). But speed test still works fine, HDD in laptop works fine(didn't test thoroughly but i can copy files ok), and SMART status don't show any problems.
I guess DS is very picky .
