Project M freezes whenever I start a match.

I'm having trouble with Project M freezing on me. I'll load a match, picking Skyloft. Once I load the stage, it is still Hanenbow, and everything freezes after the countdown. If I choose Final Destination, the stage will load, but it will still freeze.

I've defragged my SD, and I've tried my boyfriend's SD card, and it freezes for him too. I've installed Project M properly, on both of our 2GB SD Cards, and it simply won't load.

I'm using Riivolution, since it's my preferred loading method. Brawl Plus, Minus, and Balanced are all functioning properly.

I REALLY want to try Project M, since it looks great. Can anyone help me?

Also, if it's important, I'm using a Kingston card, and my BF is using the Wii branded SD Card.

All I can think of is attempting a different loading method (I believe Riivolution has had the most limitations and issues out of the current favourites), or checking to make sure your SD card is unlocked.

Yeah, have you tried using Gecko?

Okay, so I tried the Gecko OS method, and it worked. Now I just have no idea how to properly used Gecko OS. What I wonder is why the Riivolution method didn't work... did I do something wrong there? What could have gone wrong? Surely people have gotten this to work with Riivolution, hell, the method is provided...
