Any help will be appreciated.
I have searched and searched and it seems every where has different info and am so confused right now.

I got a 4.3U Wii and want to get it to the point that I can play my burnt backups of the few games I have. I may later want to do the hard drive thing but for now my main concern is playing my burnt backups and I don't have enough games to warrant a hard drive right now.
I did read where I would need an exploit game so now I also have the Lego Indiana Jones:The Original Adventures game for this.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for good solid directions for me to get it from basic wii to one that will play burnt backups from start to finish?
I can assume this is a virgin 4.3U system.


UPDATE: I have the Homebrew channel now and neogamma, Tried to install cios 249 using the installer but when at the screen when I press A to install nothing happens??? Like the controller has quit working right at that point.
Tried playing a burnt backup and getting "Cios err and DVD-R?" or something close.

Any help will be appreciated Thanks



UPDATE: This topic can be closed I got it all working somehow and it plays my backups just fine.

What part are you having probs with?

Everything before the cIOS install was easy (only knew I had to install a Cios because of the errors it was throwing up). I downloaded "WeHackWii Package" and moved the cIOS installers to the apps folder on the SD card (there was a cIOS 222 v4 and a cIOS 249 rev 17 in the package)
I read somewhere to install the cIOS 149 so I tried that using that installer and at the install screen the controller wouldn't sync to go any further so I backed up and tried a lower one (either 036 or 038 worked)then the cIOS 249/250 installed on top of that without a hitch. Once that was done everything is working great. It was ALL trial and error and it is a wonder I didn't screw something up for good but glad it worked out of course.
I am pretty sure you can't go straight to the 249/250 cIOS you have to have 1 of the others installed first (may depend on what system you are modding not sure).
