    I know this is an older post but I have that same question????

    Have the peeps that were on 3.2E upgraded to 4.2 or above found everything OK or would you have prefered to stay on 3.2?

    I'm also on 3.2E with WiiKey2 but also softmodded with Zelda trick, I play all games from a usb HD with usb loader but not played any recent games lately. (That will change soon)

    Can I still use the above files or is there any better?
    Can I backup my 3.2E and return to this if the latest version causes problems?

    Thanks all

      theres no need to update to 4.2 just update your ios38 http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...s38-r17-85849/ and perhaps update your loader or get a new one like http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums...taller-143444/

              Thanks for providing this information. Can I ask one more question, I have a Wiikey2, running 4.0e, with Homebrew channel. If I apply the safe 4.2 update, as per post #4, will that allow me to keep the ability to play out-of-region backups?

              Thx

                      Hi, I know this is an old post but my Wii has been gathering dust in the cupboard and i want to try to softmod it. The problem is i'm running 3.3E and wanted to know if i can use this method to update to 4.2? My Wii is totally standard.

                      Thanks in advance!

                                Similar query.
                                I have 3.2E and wiikey1. I want to upgrade to 4.2 or 4.1 and retain region free-dom(?) with my back-ups.
                                Wiikey says you cant when upgrading to 4.2 But is that true if I use the "safe update" in post #4?
                                How about the "simple update" using DOP-mii as desrcibed here http://sites.google.com/site/complet...stuff/updating

                                I understand that the patches etc benefit softmodders, but what about wiikey users? (like everyone here I'm dusting off my 3.2E + wiikey 1)
