    Thanks for the tips. I followed your method using Win32 Disk and it worked perfectly. Fortunately I had access to another machine and was able to create a backup file and reflash my corrupt card

    Just done the copy and paste method for a 64gb 8000games Saga EX2 and it took my Windows 10 laptop with an SSD drive 8 hours to copy the cheap Chinese SD card.
    Luckily it copied all the data considerably quicker from my SSD drive to the new genuine 128gb SD card afterwards.

    Can this all be done on a Mac OS too? The backing up I mean. Also, if I get a back up SD card brand new from a major retailer store, I should not have to use the fake test that you did in the beginning of the video, correct? Thank you for your help. 😊

    Hi, I bought my son a Dulees box 12 and had over 5000 games on it. The other day one of our younger kids accidentally deleted all games. Is there any way I can recover the games? Or does anyone have the file I can use to recover them? Please help!

    Hello can you help me please. I have a super console x with a 128 GB sd card. when I connect it to a PC, I only see 600 MB in size. I can't see all the folders or games on the memory card in my computer. can you please advise me how to display the full size of the memory card on the computer and then make a backup? Thanks

    • @skweekymagee
      @skweekymagee 3 роки тому

      I had the same issue, mine showed 511MB, but here's what to do.
      Download and use a free program called Rufus, not the Win32imager.
      Once you open Rufus, click on Show Advanced Drive Properties. You will now see a little disk icon next to the Device tab at the top. Click that and it will allow you to save an image that is a .vhd
      I have ordered a new 128GB MicroSD and will restore the image to that when it arrives. I will post back to verify that it works.

    • @skweekymagee
      @skweekymagee 3 роки тому

      So when I restore the image at the very end, Rufus gave me a write error. I tried making the image on 2 different computers each with their own created backup. Got the same thing on both. One computer has Windows 7, and the other was Windows 10. I put the card in the system anyway and the system booted up no problem from both created images.
      *The issue I have come to find is when you buy a 128GB SDHC they don't all have the same capacity. My PNY shows 116.88GB usable, my brothers 128GB Samsung shows 119GB usable.
      Checking partitions it's only the unallocated space that seems to be different which is why my card still works. In the end, the card my system came with shows 117.75GB usable capacity so you need at least that to make a clone without an error.*

      It's a linux partition. You'd be able to back up with win32imager/ clone the drive like in this video- but if you want to change out games you need to use your network, unless you update to emuelec 4.

Popped it into the pc, and did the read (img create) however it only created 8.73mb which is odd considering the sd is 8gb. I tried creating multiple and all 8.73mb. Took 30 seconds.

    • @TeamPandory
      @TeamPandory  3 роки тому +3

      Pandora boxes that have the system on the card need to use this method. It is more like a print and may be a better backup regardless, as files are not directly accessible to the pc file system. A virus could alter files, or you could accidentally change things
      A good example is the games folder for the pg3d- the original folder on the microsd has a key attached to it. If you create the folder yourself, then none of the backed up games will work with it.
