Hey guys i just installed a Wiikey in a d2b Wii and the Wii has 3.2firmware on it

the console wont launch my backups that work in other wiis, or legit games. i got one config disc to launch, then it said i had to eject and reboot :(

im not sure what to do, i need to upgrade the firmware on the Wii?

every gcos disc or config disc i give it, it stops spinning the disc like the backups and originals, not sure whats wrong

but i would really appreciate if someone can help thank you

Did this happen after you installed the wiikey? Or did you update or something? Make sure you check all of your connections on the wiikey to make sure that it's installed properly. Other than that, it might be a defective chip.

Check your solder points. It's not a firmware issue. Make sure all your solder points are good and nothing is bridged.

thanks for the reply, the only disc that somewhat launches is the 1.2 config disc that does the gamecube thing. the soldering is perfect, it do soldering for a living, and i have TWO of these chips and both do the same thing :(

the 3.2 update was on the wii before i tried to mod it, i think these chips are clones? im not sure but i would love to get them updated and working to launch stuff! thanks, they wont launch a backup of super mario galaxy, or a real twilight princess.

any thoughts? thanks all

maybe theres a gcos disc that will launch and not error?

okay i tried both chips, and rechecked my soldering and all looks well, but still no games will work, they spin for 5 seconds then stop? both originals and my personal backups, not sure whats wrong! :(

only one gcos disc launches out of the 5 i burned, i think this is a clone because it is picky on those config discs.

anyone know what i can do to get that config disc to work? keeps saying i need to eject and reboot system, must of failed?

also BIG!! Are Wiikeys supposed to work out of the box, or do i need to config?! thank you
