    hello

    i have followed everything on method A

    installed everything with no problems

    i am just lost on how to play copied games on the wii ???

    i have burned an iso of a game

    [Wii] Wii Play (PAL) (Scrubbed) Torrent - btjunkie <<< link to the game i downloaded to try out

    the iso was compress and i used imgburn and wrote it to a DVD-R disk that holds 4.7GB

    i then inserted the disk and tried running on homebrew channel with uloader but it says ERROR: USB Device disconnected then i press 2 for dvd mode and i get dvd error -2 ????

    then i tired on neogamma and clicked launch game on dvd then it says launching game ... then gives me a dvd read error (1048)

    i understand i could be doing something completely wrong ???

    please help

      did you unrar the iso before burning?also if you have a new wii you may not be able to play back up discs because of the new chip that cant be hacked,try fomatting a usb thumb drive to fat 32 and put the iso on that ,then try playing again.

        yea i did unrar the file ... i do have the new black nintendo wii ... how do i format the usb thumb drive to fat32 ? i burned the iso to a dvd-r disk

        am i doing this right ?

        burn iso onto disk with imgburn
        insert disk to wii
        whilst sd card is in wii, open homebrew channel
        open neogamma and run dvd ?
        should that make the game work ?

          Hi, the new black wii cant play dvd back up games due to the dvd drive. The only way you can play back ups on a black wii is to run them of a external hdd or a large pen drive.

            if you have a black wii you can't play backup discs,to format your usb thumb put it in computer right click on drive and pick format fat 32

                    nintendo have done something to the newer wii's that makes them not read back up dvd's,something to do with the chip in the actual dvd drive so im afraid its the hdd method only for you.

                          uloader 4.1 update

                          Having two problems.

                          1. When I try to do the uloader update (online) either download uloader or alternative I get error update.txt not found.

                          How do I fix this?

                          2. Also I am finding when trying to select games on uloader my hand is not always visable.

                          Why is this?

                          Thanks for any help sorting.
