    Need pre programmed autobooting drivekey to fix my bricked wii

    I stupidly bricked my wii while updating the system menu and now have black screen and no system menu. I have figured out the best way to fix this is run some software from a autobooting disk to restore the system menu. Having a look at the specs for drivekey and wasabi they have autobooting configurable through a menu. This means to me that autobooting would be off when it comes out the box. and as my wii is bricked I wont be able to access the config menu to turn it on. Could someone advise me where to get a pre programmed autobooting solderless mod chip so a autobooting disk will work as soon as I install the chip or tell me how to config the mod chip to autoboot on a bricked wii.

    Any thoughts would be helpful.

    I found this below but need a shop in the UK as I dont have a credit card.

    Alan do you not have BootMii installed as boot2 by any chance??

    if you do you dont need to use a DriveKey, also if the IOS your system menu is running on i.e IOS60 for 4.x then a drive key will not help you

                      used wii games............how much???
                      I'm trying to sell our wii and listed it on craigslist. I haven't had any offers yet and I'm wondering if I have it priced too high. It's only 3 months old and the kids have barely played it (which is why I'm trying to sell it). It was the regular package from Meijer that came with one controller, one num chuck the sensor and the wii sports game. We bought the sports accessory pack (the baseball bat, tennis racket, gold club) and another num chuck, plus a rechargeable battery and pack, and we have 3 other games as well. I listed it at $350. Do you think I should lower it, and if so how much do you think it's worth?

                          Did this solution end up fixing your wii? I have a wii with the same problem. I get just the black screen during bootup. I also don't have any of the backup tools on the wii. I do have a DriveKey, but I have not been able to get this to work.

                          bigboots. Could I get the same information regarding the bricked wii and ideas that you might have to fix it please.

                            need help too please...

                            Bricked my brothers wii when trying to instal backup loader, did get preloader installled though.
                            Now wii powers up to black screen (no health & safety screen), tried powering up with reset button held but nothing,
                            Have googled & read that drivekey set to autoboot (can do this with other wii i have) and a GC controller will let me boot a disc like Nintendo's Offical Wii BackUp Disk v1.31 that i have an iso of.
                            firmware is 4.1E
                            Is there anything else i need to know?

                            thanks

                              where did you get a copy of the Nintendo's offical wii backup Disk. Can you upload the iso so I can have a copy?
