HUZZAH!
Skee, your idea about the sd card reminded me that I tried that once before. Not realizing it, that image was still on my sd card from the last time. THAT is what it was reading over and over. I pulled out the card and it stopped trying to reload it.
I grabbed the matbee rom and put it on the root of my sd... didn't delete any of my files or anything. I popped it in and it asked if i wanted to update or cancel. I chose update.. and SUCCESS
it loads!
This means a lot. The answer that nobody seems to ever answer about loading a rom from sd WORKS! No more fookin around with stupid ass RUU.. now i will just copy the nbh to my sd and rename for a perfect load everytime.
Thanks all for the help!
