wii question

[m9g]

ok ive just downloaded this and there is only one folder with 4 files in it
2 read me txts
1 bmp file and a boot.dol
do you have all of them?
if not redownload and try again
have unrared the file?

Yep all four files, uncompressed and into apps folder, as mentioned also tried it by creating a folder in apps and then putting update files in there, is it worth re-installing HBC .6? could it be version .8 thats not letting me see it?

How did you put them onto the sd and what did you extract them with. If you extracted them onto pc then drag and dropped them onto sd they don't always show up, it is better to extract them onto the sd. Also sometimes winrar does not work well with wii files (don't ask me why) cause I don't know, so if that is what you extracted them with try 7zip

If it still doesn't work extract them to the pc then copy and paste them (not drag and drop) onto sd.

There is not boot.dol or folder in Firmware-Updater_4.3b.rar as there normally is in a app folder its Firmware-Updater_4.3b.dol, Nintendo Wii.bmp, README.es.txt and README.txt. The instructions are pretty poor do you have to rename the dol to boot.dol?

I've use WinRAR for years and it works perfectly.

Got it installed - by chance actually - I like a wally went into channel manager and accidentally deleted HBC, went into MMM and the updater showed there so installed it and all updated fine.

Problem I have now is I dont have the HBC, probably a simple way of getting it back but cant think how. Still have uloader channel etc etc showing on the main wii screen

You can copy all your channels to an SD card as a backup so you don't delete them again.

The easiest way would be in install HBC only again to get the channel back I would assume?
