This thread seems to be very helpful. Thanks to the very supporting folks!
Anyway, my problem is probably the same as abefarley.
Since updating from 2.2U to 3.0U, none of my backup works, but originals work fine.
I've tried the steps to create config1.3 and 1.9b/1.9g disc as on page 3 of this thread with both ImgBurn and Nero... no luck.
Neither combination of directly burn the iso, use fixsize only, use fixsize then make-multiv3.
The message got is "An error has occurred. Press the Eject button and remove the disc, then turn the Wii Console off and refer to the manual ... " other than that, all previous >10 DVD (Ridata and TaiyoYuden) are DREs.
I believe mine is NTSC, so I use USA when using make-multiv3. I also believe my Wiikey is original (I got the hologram but of course I could be tricked)
I can't think why soldering could be the issue since every backup work fine when in 2.2U. Nevertheless, I opened up my Wii and checked the connections, they're allright.
I've tried putting my Wii vertically/horizontally... just a desperate try =P
Anyhow... any help would very much appreciated.
Thanks folks!

I've installed the wiikey by some 'professional' not myself,
actually I'm a noob about mods.
Maybe for my case its the DVD drive problem, cuz after i get my wii back with wiikey installed, the way it eject DVD is a bit different from original. The wii will keep eject DVD now non-stop even the dvd comes out and automatically want my put the disc back... though its a minor problem and still work, but after a few times the dvd drive will struck and i need to reset again. I'll bring the wii back to the installer this weekend see whether he can fix it..
thx for the suggestions mate~

Ok guys, NTSC Wii here with WiiKey, getting this error on the 1.9g beta update after hitting 100% on the flash test:
"Test failed, check connections and try again".
What? Connections? Running 3.0u..
And I read every post on this thread, no one had this same error.
Another desperate user here, please help :(

I've wiikey installed on a firmware 3.1E wii
try to do the 1.9b firmware update and 1.3 config disk, both no luck,
it just say can't reconize the disk at the disc page in wii menu, not even showing they are gamecube disk
I've tried using imation DVD-R, +R on 2x and 4x with NERO and IMGBURN
I've followed the typical procedures..d/l files from wiikey.cn, and use the filechop method...and sucessfully expanded to the 1.35GB size ISO
so...I really dunno what went wrong..maybe its something related to the 3.1E firmware so it can't read the disk, or..dunno maybe other reason?
Any help on the matter is a big help and great thx....
to both of you - are you 100% sure you are using the correct region image for your Wii? IE, PAL for europe etc.. ?
I'm positive that I'm using the correct region. I also verified that the original Gamecube discs are working with it. Wiikey's website had this to say about the 3.0 Wii update, "base and config discs will not load 'natively', neither will any other GC disc with El Torito standard header format". I'm not certain what that means exactly, but it sounds like backup disc that should load as a GC game won't load after the update.
I also tried freeloader for GC. It recognizes the disc as a GC disc, but gets an error when tryin to load. I'm not sure if that'd work on a wii anyway, but thought i'd give it a shot.
If anyone has any other ideas....please let me know.

All I can tell you is that I made a GCOS disk as I outlined previously and it allowed me to load the 1.3 config disk on a v3.1 Wii. I didn't need to use anything extra for the firmware update itself however....

Without stating the obvious, it sounds like the Wii is having trouble reading the disc. What media are you burning it to? From experience, Ritek media works a treat.
Don't forget to verify the media after writing it.....

I tried and I tried
I cant get the Wii Config to work but cannot do the update. I get the game cube screen but when i hit start the screen goes black and my gamecube joystick rumbles like crazy.
When I use the GCOS for the update it reads the disc but every file except the GC loader just goes back to the main screen.

Talk me through step by step what you're doing here and what happens.

what is your wii firmware ver. ? what the write speed you used to burn the backup disc ? try to hit reset one before you put the disc in , run the config. 1.2 and turn on all option before you update to 1.9b .

I have ver.3.1U. Burning speed was 4X. I tried with reset button, but still no luck.
Also I am 100% sure that wii key is soldered correctly.
When I got Wii, it already had ver.3.0. Therefore, this is the first time that I am trying to activate wiikey.
Thanks.

You're not going to get much of a reply since you've admitted to software piracy. Sorry!

Does It have to be 1.9b to get the Config Disc to work ? Will it not work on the 1.9g ? I burn the ISO and I get the GC Logo, but then when I hit start, DRE - any ideas ? (is not the media type)

The config disc will work with 1.9g. You'll get DRE if you have 3.0 or higher on your Wii. Track back through this thread and see what needs to be done. Basically, you need a GCOS boot disk to use the config disc.

so much info and so many different ways ...
if i outline my setup , could someone please advise on a course of action :)
i`m not expert with the Wii stuff by a long shot , i installed the Wiikey and its always been 100% perfect but the Mrs says we need 1.9g , ok fine i have read 6 pages and i`m a tad confused
our current setup
Wiikey 1.2 is current in Wii at momment
Wii firmware she tells me is 2.2E
i have downed the 1.3 and 1.9g files and extracted and enlarged the 1.3 pal bootdisc iso file but as yet not put it in the Wii
so what do i do next ?? put the 1.3 disc in and see what gives , we dont have a GC controller , will we be able to do whatever is necesary with the Wii buttons ??
if someone could nudge me in the right direction before i go any further i`d appreciate it :)

Right - keep the config disk to one side for now as you will need to update the firmware to 1.9g first off. The reset button on the Wii (just below the on/off) will allow you to navigate thus:
config disk
quick press - changes the selection (moves down to the next line)
long press - changes the option
*don't be fooled into thinking that nothing has changed after you reset the console - the actual options shown are not representative of the options active. i.e multi-region will always show as off.
In the 1.9g update, you are asked to press a key to continue. The reset button works here too.
Pop in the update disk first, do the update.
If all goes to plan, insert the 1.3 config and using the reset button, change the multi-region to on, then save the settings.
That's all there is to it really.
