Hope someone can help me.

I have tried to backup 2 of my games using my wifi connection and DVD Dumper. They backed up fine and the file size is 4.37GB so I am getting the entire disc. I burned them onto DVD's (DVD+R that were booktyped to DVD-ROM) but when I play them the screen goes blank.

I am using the wiigator 0.3 Gamma loader with the IOS249. I know it works because my friends backups play fine on it so it is just my 2 backups. On of the backups was WII Fit and I can hear the audio from the WIImote when I try to start it but not any video.

What firmware are you running? What DVD's are you using? Use imgburn to burn at 4x and see what that does and use NTSC if you are in the U.S.

I am running 3.1

I have tried both Taiyo Yuden and Memorex DVD+r media and burned them at both 2x and 4x. I have tried burning with imgburn (v2.4.2) and nero. With my NEC DVD drive I booktyped the DVD's so that they are DVD-ROM (verified with DVDinfpro). I also opened the image with Region Frii and they are USA. I have used both Wii Dumper and WiiHTTP Dumper to extract the image to my PC.

First off, you need to be on 3.4U. Make sure you are using NTSC games and not pal.(even though pal will work). Install the oct. 23 fix and cios v7. It should then work.
