I soft-modded my 4.2E wii and installed a few things - CoverFloader for example - all was working well!
I loaded up Wad Manager 1.5 so that I could set up CoverFloader as a channel on the system menu without having to go through the Homebrew channel - I couldn't get this to work, so I left it.
Then my wiimote started playing up....
Basically if I'm 30-40cms away from the sensor bar it is OK, but any further back and the pointer (hand) jumps about all over the menus and games, rendering it useless in a practical sense.
Any thoughts or help on this ?
I do have pre-loader installed and a nand backup (IOS), which I tried to restore, but it says can't find nand, so I don't continue - any thought on this please?
What files do I need on my SD card to get the nand restore to work... ?
Many thanks for any thoughts.
Oh, I have tried to re-sync, I've tried a new/different wiimote, I've unplugged everything and left taken batteries out of the wiimote for 8 hours....
But still there's a 'jumping' pointer.....

OK so I just got 'brave' and ignored the warnings when restoring my nand... pressed A+B+X+Y together (which runs a simulation first) and was able to restore !
All's well!
