If you want to put your Gamecube 'roms' - *chuckle* - onto a usb hard drive then use Dios Mios.
If you want to put them on a SD card, use Dios Mios Lite. Simple really, both are pretty much exactly the same to set up, there's no easyest one *chuckle x2*. Follow the instructions by the book without skipping anything (this means setting up the program AND the rom iso placement) and you should be fine.

thank you for the reply! atleast now i know the difference between the to versions! i have already a hdd for my wii roms so i guess it won't be a problem to put the gamecube roms on there! so dios mios it's gonna be!

ok, in advance of an answer i downloaded the files in the link of the forum of how to play gamecuwe roms on a hd, and i took a look at the files! in step 2 you say: Download the DIOS MIOS v2.8 RAR. Go to 'DM', then move 'DIOSMIOS_2.8' to the root folder of your SD card, or for easier installation put it in a folder on the root titled 'wad'.. i dont a map called wad, so i just have to make one? i also can not find the DMToolbox.exe file? i downloaded and un packed al 3 items , but i don't see it! thanks

-_- reading is difficult.

Here is what you need to do:

1. Get Homebrew Channel running
2. Use DOP-Mii to install the .wad file from Dios Mios
3. Profit

Je bent Nederlands?

Installeer de Homebrew Channel, gebruik dan DOP-Mii (kun je downloaden van www.wiibrew.org) en installeer dan Dios Mios. Zelf zou ik de normale volledige versie gebruiken.

So you are Dutch?

Just install the HBC and then use Dop-mii to install the Dios Mios

    What's the point of "confirming" games you know will get released. Like Nintendo "confirming" a Zelda sequel. "We can't be sure Nintendo is working on a new Zelda game, or if a new Zelda game will ever be released, until they officially confirm it."
  • Veho @ Veho:
    "There is literally no way to know if they will ever release a new Zelda game, it's wild speculation until they officially confirm it."
