Hey guys,

I know this has been discussed a gazillion times before..But my discs do not seem to work.

I searched through the forums. A small number of people have this problem, yet no one has provided a valid reason.

I have a US Wii with firmware 3.0U. It came pre-modded with Wiikey, which later i updated to the unofficial 1.9b firmware. So far games have been working fine, but they are only those which I backups which are provided from China (with proper artwork, factory pressed,etc).
.
I tried my first backup - MySims. Burnt it using TDK DVD-R 1-8x, popped it into the Wii. It worked fine, except for an annoying buzzing sound coming from the DVD Drive. Worried, i searched the forums and one suggested that I burnt the Wiikey Config Disc and set the drive speed to 3x. After that onwards, those "Chinese" backups still work, but my backups don't seem to work. I tried using Memorex 16X DVD-R, Verbatim DVD-R, and even my previous MySims backup doesn't work now. Other backups work fine. I tried 2 image burning programs - ImgBurn with the correct settings @ 2x and 4x, and Nero.

I have wasted over 15 DVDs trying to get a backup into my Wii. Can someone pls assist me on this?

Thanks

Hm, weird.

Try using Verbatim on 2x/4x speed. That's the most (4x) that the Wii can read.

Good luck :)

I have used Verbatim DVD-R 16x Certified @ 2x and 4x

I have a TSST-L632D Burner and an Acer Laptop, if that helps

Now it works!

Burnt the 1.3 config disc via GCOS and enabled region free, set the drive speed to 6x.

All's working now!
