I have a few games that are supposed to work using HDLoader 0.7c, 0.8B, 3.5, and HD Advance 3.0 but just do not work. I ripped them all using DVD Decrypter, and loaded via winhiip. I've tried all possible mode combinations with these, and nothing changes.

Kingdom Hearts II (with the patch applied) still locks up when entering Gummi Ship. Shadow of Destiny freezes on load. Digimon World 4, B/W flickering screen. Prince of Persia Warrior Within and Twin Thrones freeze after the Ubisoft logo. Bully freezes after the Rockstar logo. Sonic Unleashed freezes on load. Shadow of the Collosus freezes on load. Gungrave freezes on load. Burnout Revenge gives a blinking screen.

I'd love a little advice on what I'm missing.

Games I've got working are GTA: San Andreas, Red Ninja, Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven, Burnout 2, Burnout Dominator, Rogue Galaxy, Kingdom Hearts, Red Dead Revolver, Dragon Quest VIII, Final Fantasy X, and Digimon World Data Squad.

Games I haven't tested are GUN, Rygar, and Soul Reaver 2.

I haven't been able to find an up-to-date, comprehensive list for compatibility anywhere. Most end at 2005, with a few last updating in 2007. Something has to be up. Could it be the hard drive itself causing these supposedly compatible games to not work? Are the lists wrong? Am I just a boob and missing something (also likely)? Is there ANYTHING better than sksapps' list, which provides little information?

Kingdom Hearts II patch only allows you to go to all worlds, to bypass the gummi worlds.
It doesn't fix the gummi missions.

The B/W screen flickering means you need to patch it using the pal>ntsc y-fix patcher.

Sonic Unleashed does not work on the ide hdd

As for the other games I am not sure what to tell you why they don't work.

I have 4 of those games you mentioned but not on the hdd. If I have time tomorrow I could load them up and test them.
I use hdloader 8c mostly
I will get back to you.

I know sksapps.com hdd compatibility list shows Bully using mode 3 enabled.

Holy crap. I just noticed these discs are UK. Okay, never gonna get games from amazon listed as "no case or manual" again. *sigh*

Yeah, I saw a thread from last year about Sonic Unleashed, I was just hoping that some new version of something would make it work. Well, that's cool. If I gotta use the disc, it's not a big deal.

And lastly, thanks for the heads up on the KHII thing. I thought it just kinda made you skip the missions when you went to the doors. But, that's cool, too. Whatever works.

The Prince of Persia games still aren't working, but I was given a POP collection disc with Codebreaker 10, an all-in-one deal, from a buddy. So I ripped the burned copy of this, and the Prince games all work. No big deal, legally speaking, as I got the boxed set from Half.com a few months ago, when I was preparing for the PS2. I really have no idea WHY this works, and not rips of the actual games, but I'll take what I can get.

Gungrave loads now. It started working after I deleted Sonic Unleashed, the 2 Prince of Persia Games, and the PAL games (and returned to seller) from the HDD. The audio is REALLY jacked up though. But that's not a big deal. It's only during the opening so far. The weird thing is that it only works if I use HD Loader 3.5. All the others just give me the BSoD.

Tested GUN (BSoD after first FMV), Rygar (good so far), and Soul Reaver 2 (good so far).
