Where Should I Buy A Replacement Wii DVD Drive?

13 April 2012 - 06:29 PM

So... I have this spare Wii that has a bad/broken DVD drive; it "whirrs" and will not pull in discs.
Since the system is old enough and has compatible boot2 access, I've had fun testing various homebrew apps on it.
But, now I'm thinking about selling it, and I'd like to fix the DVD drive so that it has normal Wii functionality.
Where is the best place to buy replacement Wii DVD drives?
Replacing the DVD drive doesn't mess with boot2 access, right?

Thanks, for any info.

New Wii - No GC - BootMii Question

26 March 2012 - 03:45 PM

A friend just bought a new Wii (one without the GC ports), and I suggested softmodding it.
He attempted to do so, but he said that BootMii as IOS would freeze and not work.
It's been a while since I've softmodded, so I thought I would ask the experts... Are the new Wii's able to run BootMii as IOS?
I haven't had a chance to look at it myself, and he's never softmodded a Wii before. So, it could easily be his inexperience.

Just curious...and thanks, again, to all the teams out there that have made Wii softmodding possible!!

Back To The Scene, After A Year

06 November 2011 - 10:19 PM

Well... I've been away from the Homebrew Scene for over a year, now, and it looks like several of my newer game backups fail to load in my backup loaders. So, hopefully, my friends here at GBATemp can help me out! =)

First off, here's a sysCheck snapshot, of my main (Launch Day) Wii:
Warning! Spoiler inside. 


Below are some of the application versions I currently have installed:
  • Wiiflow v1.1 r42 (IOS249 rev20)
  • USB Loader GX v1.0 r938 (IOS249 rev20)
  • BootMii Public Beta v6
  • The Homebrew Channel v1.0.8
  • IOS236 Installer v5
  • Tantric's IOS58 Installer
  • Custom cIOSX Revision 20b
  • Hermes v4
  • StartPatch v4.2.4 (Only using to block disc updates)
  • WAD Manager v1.5
  • WAD Manager v1.7
  • NAND Backup (Created 2011-11-06, with BootMii)
What version of Wiiflow should I be using?
What version of USB Loader GX should I be using?
Is Waninkoko still coding for the Wii Scene?
Should I replace cIOSX rev 20b with d2x? If so, what version?
What IOS's am I missing?
Which IOS's should I update?
Is there anything that I should update?
Anything that I'm missing?

Since I've been away for such a LONG time, I'm pretty open-minded at this point.

Thanks, for any and all feedback!

Dragon's Lair Trilogy

03 December 2010 - 03:55 AM

Sorry, if this has been asked before, but I was unable to find an answer by searching...

I'm unable to get Dragon's Lair Trilogy to load in USB Loader GX or WiiFlow. Both will load the Wiimote Safety Screen, then get stuck on a black screen.
Anyone know how to avoid this and get the game working??


Thanks!

Retail Disc - Metroid: Other M - What IOS's?

12 September 2010 - 07:03 AM


(Sorry, if this question has been asked a million times.)

I'm running System Menu v4.2 and I have the Retail Disc of Metroid: Other M.
Right now, I'm blocking Disc Updates, so what IOS's do I need to manually update, so I can play the disc?
