unable to load file/no files found loading from SD card

Original [issue 22](https://code.google.com/p/genplus-gx/issues/detail?id=22) created by jratma on 2009-01-20T03:28:45.000Z:

I'm using the most recent version of Genplus-gx (which I obtained from here), loaded from HBC version 1.01, with Wii system menu 3.4, if that matters. I'm running genplus-gx from a 2GB kingston SD card.

The first time I load up Genplus-gx after I have placed the roms on the SDcard, it loads the first game just fine. I can play all I like. However, when I try to load a new game, it refuses. Sometimes, I get a black screen. Sometimes, it's a different solid color, like orange. Sometimes, it says unable to load file.

If, at this point, I exit back to the homebrew channel and reload Genplus, I'm then able to load that game, even though I wasn't before. If I try to load a new game, however, even one that genplus had played in the past, the same thing happens again.

If I persist in trying to load a new game over and over again, or even a different one each time, eventually genplus will stop recognizing that there are any roms in the directory, or even that the directory exists at all! At this point nothing helps, and the only way I can get genplus-gx to "see" the roms again is to completely delete my /genplus/roms/ directory, re-create it, and copy the files back over.

I haven't been able to find any other mention of this issue ANYWHERE, so I'm hoping it's something simple that I'm just missing.
