IOS and CIOS are not the same thing (well sort of). the C in CIOS means custom, i.e. it has been modified from the original version.

see this link to get the latest CIOS released by Waninkoko. cios 36 rev7. (this will give you a custom ios 249 which you are looking for)

http://dl.qj.net/Custom-IOS36-rev-7-Wii-Ho...24851/catid/526

this either A) requires you to have a certain IOS placed on the root of your sd card or B) requires your wii to be connected to wifi to complete the install..

and dont ask where you can get the required IOS as it is a copyrighted file, however you can PM me if you have any questions..

Anytime you see someone talking about 'cIOS', they are referring to IOS249. 'cIOS' is just a rather arbitrary term waninkoko gave his slightly modified IOS.

IOS249 means exactly nothing. You can install every IOS and every cIOS as IOS249, IOS249 only means that a ÂIOS is installed at position 249 in the Wii's nand.

You can get the needed files for the installer via wifi during installation, or you can download them at your pc from nintendo's servers(WiiGator) or you can extract it from a game disc with wufe(Waninkoko).

    That must be rough. Productive I'm sure but hard to balance with daily life

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.

    @Maximumbeans, I had a friend who had a glass chess set for their birthday.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It was like all clear and fancy. Tbf I'm not too experienced with chess, but would like to learn someday.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    That sounds really cool
