Read the tutorial on the first page.

Read from "[FILECHOP REMINDER:] (??What is Filechop and do I need it?? - Answer) "

It tells you filechop.exe is included in the original Config 1.3 download. The link is below that.

Hello, if you notice a little white text with a pencil in the top right corner of your post. It allows you to edit your post, instead of replying again.

WHAT AND WHY OF WIIKEY UPDATES

>> The Wiikey is a chip that accepts firmware updates to enhance its features and to improve compatibility.
>> The latest update for the Wiikey is 1.9g (released by the Wiikey team to counteract firmware changes as installed by Super Mario Galaxy
>> Config discs are used to change the Wiikey's settings, including, but not limited to activating REGION OVERRIDE to allow playback of images from region other than the Wii's one. (There two config discs: 1.2, and the more recent 1.3)
>> The Wiikey also has a failsafe feature that allows users to recover/reset the Wiikey in cases of a failed update or any other event that leaves the Wiikey firmware non-functional. In this case users must use the 1.9b Recover disc

This hasn't been updated, but I believe 1.9s is the latest update.

Its all posted in the first page of this tutorial.
Do you have a gamecube controller?

There is a bit of a guide at the bottom of this review.

smokyrain, where can I get these updates and how do i..hmm...install them? Do I even need to do an install? I am not sure, really, how to do this. My friend sold me his modded wii and I am still learning about all this stuff. I don't even know where or how to make "back-ups" of wii games. Where can I go to learn that, too? Thanks for the help/advice.

It would be good if you could check with your friend to see which firmware it has on it.

A fellow afterdawn member "tuurtnt" has uploaded the wiikey discs here.

If your backups are working fine, then no I wouldn't run the updated firmware.

There is a bit of a tutorial here on how to use the firmware

There should also be a readme.txt with the download.

whenever I download a wii NTSC torrent it works just fine on my modded wii, but whenever I download certain PAL iso's or PAL EURO iso's they don't work. A few of them have but most of them don't. Like 9 out of ten don't work. How can I fix this? Should I update my firmware or just find some other torrent site? I am afraid to update my firmware in fear of losing the ability to play back ups.

Not all games work 'out of region'. The region free setting of the chip helps, but still doesn't make all games work. Check out this link for a full compatibility list...........

Those of you who tried the flash installed by unplugging it at 70% and plugging it in when you're updating the flash on wiikey. You may have destroyed your wiikey. Some of you might have been lucky and been able to recover it by using the 1.9b recovery cd. But unfortunately, i didn't. My wiikey is offically broken by doing a bad flash. the Wiikey2 is supposed to be impossible to destroy it by using a bad flash. Sorry guys, you can in fact ruin your wiikey by doing this method.

This thread was pretty helpful in getting my wii to work on most games so here's my info.

My wii was v3.0u with 1.9g and wiikey v1. I could play SMG and Endless Ocean fine (plus the old games). When I tried Lego Indy/Force Unleashed they didn't work until I upgraded to 1.9s (full flash) and used the v1.4 config disc (enabled region free) which can be downloaded off the wiikey.cn site. After that the two games I tried worked (indy, force unleashed).

I then used NTSC Mario Kart to update my console to v3.1u and that was successful (no duplicate channels). I use TDK and Memorex DVD-Rs with no problems. Tried SSBB but had crappy GQ dual layers so it only let me start the game past the warning then errored but should work with better discs.
