softmodding wii 4.2 and freezes on wad manager

**TNredneck** · 22nd December, 2009, 03:30 PM

im softmodding my sisters wii for christmas and ive used the 4.2 rar files i found on this website and im almost done. i get to the screen with the custom ios installer and i select do not reinstall ios and then start homebrew channel and go to wad mananger v1.5 and then when i push the a button the remote quits working. i have seen where the buttons on the wii should work and also a gamecube controller but i have tried both with no luck. anything you could do to help me would be great cuz christmas is right around the corner and i would like to get this done for her.

i dont mean to redirect anybody from this site nor im i plugging another site but i got the guide from www.wiihacks.com and it is called full hacking guide for 4.2 system menus. im not the best with computers and this guide put it into terms i could understand. like i said before i dont mean to redirect anybody away from here but i hope this helps sum people.

I softmodded my wii b4 Xmas but trying to do the same on a relatives and having the freezing issue. Also the wii won't boot up boot.dol from an SD card now only a boot.elf.
Relative had installed the hbc before he asked me to look at it. Was wondering if he'd done something with the cios by mistake?
