Hi Everyone,
I come to you as you peeps seem to be the experts in regards to making the wii do as it's told. There seems to be an awful lot of conflicting info out there!
I have read lots of articles, watched hours of youtube about Wii hacking etc. 3 days later I am still a bit stuck. I am hoping someone can help
I have a Wii running 4.3e and it has been bannerbombed several months ago (Didn't do anything with it, merely wanted to see if it worked on my Wii)
A few days ago I turned it on, connected the wireless and updated the homebrew channel no issues.
I am trying to run some games from my external WD passport drive. However, no usb loader seems able to actually do it. It complains about IOS slots running the wrong revisions and needing non stubbed 249 IOS. Being able to run backup DVDs would be fine, but can't seem to get that to work.
I can run HackMii and have BootMii installed, along with a well advised NAND backup.
I am really getting wound up with this now. What do I need to do to make my games work ?
Would some kind sole point me in the right direction as to how to make this work?
Many thanks
WiiGeekee :)

Installing the HBC and Bootmii to the system is not going to let you play backups. You need to install custom IOS so the system can play the backups.
If you have the Homebrew Channel and Bootmii installed then your 1 step closer to fully modding your system.
Go HERE and start following the guide from Chapter 2- Hacking your wii. This will install all the cIOS and other stuff you need to load backup games.

the most simple way to do anything else is to install IOS236. you already have HBC, so download the IOS236 v5 installer, dop-mii v15, cIOSX_rev21 installer, and hermes 5.1 installer.
run the IOS236 installer from HBC and install. nothing more than a few minutes on wifi.
then run dop-mii. select IOS236 to use, then uninstall IOS222, IOS223, IOS224, IOS248, IOS249, IOS250, IOS254. they will all be stubbed because of the 4.3 update.
exit dop-mii and run the cIOSX installer. install base IOS57 to IOS249, IOS56 to IOS250, and IOS58 to IOS248.
exit cIOSX installer, then run hermes 5.1 installer. IOS222 should be IOS38, IOS223 should be IOS37, and IOS224 should be IOS57.
ps2: v7 scph-39001 - independence exploit - hdloader 0.8c - maxtor 300gb hdd
(+[__]%) psp slim ta-085v1: 6.60 PRO B10
wii (powered by bootmii/priiloader): 4.1u - d2x v10beta53-alt (base 56) - configurable usb loader v70r51/devolution r188 - wd scorpio black 7200rpm 320gig w/ ams venus ds2 enclosure
got a whole lot more to list . . .

Thanks muchly for that. I wish I had known of that on Friday! All that was required was the second install of the IOS'. It took about ten mins and now works perfectly.
Thanks again

Hi there just a question larrylje....
Would I be able to use this Hacking process on NEW Japanese Wii bought about 1 month ago?? I think it has 4.3j firmware on it I`m not really sure.... My mate in Japan just bought a new one for x`mas and wants me to softmodd it. BTW I have softmodded other wii`s including myself so I do know what I am doing , I have also used this method you provided a link to on my cousins wii that got accidently upgraded to a 4.3 via the nintendo upgrade.
Also when I am doing the softmodding, will it all be in English or will it automatically change to Japanese?? I mean the instructions on what to press and all?
Thanks for the help in advance :)

As far as I know all systems can be modded. Even the newer red Wii systems. The only ones I am not to sure about are Korean sytems. But all USA/PAL/JAP systems should be modable.

thanks for that.... how about the instructions staying in English!?!?!
As to install hackmii it tells me the following...
-HackMii Installer loads
Jap NTSC-J wiis, use this file- Hackmii_0.8-SS-J.zip
and I`m guessing its will be in Japanese writing?!?!
