So I found that my Wii can get a WiiKey, Ive found the liscensed retailer through the website, and Ive look up a few resources. I was wondering though, where I can get some good tutorials to take the Wii apart and get at the drive. I understand the soldering bit, and have done a bit of soldering before, Im just concerned about taking the Wii apart, and putting it back together. (I have the tri-wing screwdriver already)

This will help with installation http://www.modchipstore.com/support/inde...kbarticleid=190

This will help with figuring out what type of chipset you have. http://forums.nintendo-scene.com/index.p...msg2440#msg2440

Okay, so, once Ive installed it, how can I test it without assembling it and all?

Where can I use my multimeter to test continuity?

And once my WiiKey is installed, upon turning it on the first time, what should I do?

I would first take my meter and test points to points to see in anything is bridged.

Following that I loosely reassembled it and tested a backup and it worked for me.
ONLY TEST A NTSC TITLE SINCE YOUR SYSTEM IS AMERICAN.

And you having a Wiikey I am pretty sure that you will need to install the new 1.9 firmware on you chip I think.

PM me if you want and I can IM the info faster I think.
