i made a mistake im on 3.3 yeah thanks ck ok. i was thinking about that but i didnt knw if they was any advantages doing it that way? over staying on 3.3 can you tell me the pros and cons on the two ways mate?

you will be on the latest update,no need to worry about disc updates,you will have latest shop channel so you can download bbc iplayer and other apps,you can get preloader working if your bootmii was installed as iso,cant think of any reason to stop on 3.3

yeah that sounds good about no disc updates. i dont understand about preloader and bootmii? wat does this do?
sorry for being a noob just new to the wii stuff.
so if i update to 4.2 i thought this stop me from playing copied games on disc and i would have to use usb drive?

[ck-ok]

no the update wont stop you playin from disc,cause the 4.2 hack will take care of that,and when you start to hack the wii it will tell you to install bootmii,on older wii's this can be saved as boot2,on newer wii's it will be iso,if you can save as bootmii can can recover from a bricked wii using boot2,if you have to save as iso ,boot2 wont work so you need to install preloader to recover a bricked wii

yeah thanks m8 i didnt knw about using preloader to recover. is there no way to recover 3.4 ones? when i tryped in the net about 4.2 lots of ppl where saying bad stuff about it saying it bricked un softmodder wiis and was not as good as earlier ones has all theses issues been sorted with it now?
sorry about all the questions man so in that one you give me does it not run wiibrickblocker? do i not need it coz the games wont udate ?

[ck-ok]

the posts you read will be older threads,no issues with 4.2 now,and wiibrickblocker is a pc program,and will work on any wii,and you cant install preloader on 3.4 there is no system hacks

yeah sorry i made a mistake wiibrickblocker is a pc prog. dont forgot i made a mistake in tittle of thread im on 3.3
ok so from what you say 4.2 is the best and safest way to go. is 4.2 the best supported way on the forum here? sorry about all the qus here again
how come every1 has went the 4.2 way then does it have any advantages? will it be hard for me to install 4.2? im bit freaked out about messing up is there a guide on here for doing the 4.2 upgrade ?

[ck-ok]

no its not any harder for 4.2 than 3.3,and 4.2 is well supported,and i wouldnt tell you to do anything i would not do myself,there are one or two tutorials in wii downloads take your pick,one thing i would say is use a sandisk 2 gig sd card,this is a excellent tut http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...uide-67927/and dell is often online to help you out.
good luck

yeah mate i apperate the help im confused coz i been reading a guide on sofmod on another site for 3.1 - 4.1
its says
UPDATE YOUR SYSTEM MENU VERSION

Warning - If you don't install the patched IOS60 first you will brick!
If you are on 3.3 or 3.4 then you must update now - DO NOT install priiloader until you have updated as it will cause untold problems!.

This step is optional unless you are on 3.1, 3.3 or 3.4 in which case you must update, if you are on 3.2 or 4.0 you can update if you want and it is recommended that you do, if you are on 4.1 there is no need obviously!

so if i stayed on 3.3 i would have to update to 4.1 the guide on here i didnt read any of that on it?

[ck-ok]

ok that section of the guide your reading is for people with soft modded wii's,updating to 4.2 on a virgin wii has no risk what so ever,if done through nintendo.
