    So now if I want to install priiloader should I follow method A up to A4 and then follow the priiloader guide on Adewiis blog?

    I don't want to mess with too much before I do the NAND backup.

    What is
    GP DOP-IOS MOD doing to the wii up to A4 and does it change the NAND at all?

    I don't see the priiloader files in the complete4_2 files so I've downloaded them from the link at adewiis blog.

    What is the trucha patch all about?

    Sorry for all the dumb questions but I'd rather ask than do something stupid through my own ignorance.
    install preloader with either tut dont matter,dont worry its easy to do.trucha bug is about fakesigning if you want to know more about fakesigning or dop-iso just google them good luck

      Yep trying again and all working. I had to go to ade's site for the homebrew channel pack as the one on bootloader didnt have any channels?? Anyways, got it now. My wii must be fairly old cos the BootMii installed as Boot2 and BootIso. So basically i installed both, then went into BootMii and did a NAND backup (read: lots of little green squares - 2 were black). I then put, from the SD card to my PC, 3 files: BootMii folder, bootmii.nand and bootmii.something. I left these on the SD anyways but just wanted to confirm that this was the right procedure to unbrick in case of the worst!

      I have started to get a couple of games which should be finished today..."Yes Your Honour, I own the original"...so Ill give the game and BrickBlocker a little 'personal time' together before burning. Just wondered though, if it says patched, and I still use BrickBlocker, it wont unpatch it!

      Still waiting on my Verbs to come through...then its all gravy from there!!!

      Thanks team, Ill try and keep a look out for any new bits now and again!!

            in uloader have you switched 002 fix on? neogamma rev17 have you put whip files in a folder called neogamma on the root of your sd card? it wont harm to install this ios put in wad folder and instal with wad manager

                    what an original disc? click on dvd where?

                    ok put an original in, and can see the settings, but put the backup in and the only option at the bottom is wii menu. perhaps its my disks...ill wait for the verbs unless u can suggest anything else

                      backup disc,top right corner says dvd,click on that for options,002 fix might be built in,i dont use uloader that much,but you can try launching it with different cios 222/223,also you can push home button on uloader page and push + button to auto update try reading this http://adewii.wordpress.com/2009/07/...ntal-controls/

                        Nope, dont get any of that, if i press home in uloader it exits and the + does nothing. ill try when i have a diff game and also when these verbs come in!! im using uLoader 4.1 by Hermes if that makes any difference!

                        Neogamma gave me a 1051 error...

                          ok put your game in drive start uloader on main screen top right corner there is a tab for dvd click on that you should get a disc spinning for a second then the setting for that disc should be displayed.if you have a new wii there is a chance that it cant play dvd backups or could be a bad burn or substandard media,wait until you get your verb's and use imgburn

                            I ended up here because i bought black wii and just upgraded v4.2e to it. Tryed already 2 methods of softmodding..neither worked. Not even booted at it:/
                            Hope this forum goin' to help for that
                            Looked already this v4.2e softmod
                            Anyone knows this package works "directly"??
                            Sorry my bad english but hope you undestand

                              Try the method at the start of this thread it will work if you follow it correctly step by step. Dont forget that black wii's do not play back up dvd's,playing games is either external hhd or large pen drive only.

                              Good luck and read the tutorial "carefully" take your time.
