This seems to be a near launch unit (manufactured a few months after launch) so you probably have the earliest Wii hardware (that can load burned discs with a softmod, etc)
Is your Wii connected to the internet? I see you have IOS58 installed but you have an older version of HBC (unless that is just how sysCheck displays newer HBC versions)

Your cIOS is rather outdated, so a lot of newer games won't function correctly. You should download ModMii and use that to update your softmod (launch ModMii Skin and use the "Start Here To Mod Your Wii" option), that will update everything to the latest (recommended) version.
Since the softmod was done before you got the Wii, you probably want to select the "Yes" option to make ModMii treat your Wii as unmodded, otherwise you have to know exactly what you have installed and want to update.

You'd also want to install BootMii as boot2 if you haven't already (installing it again won't hurt if you're unsure, but it looks like you don't have it installed), this will protect you from bricks and allow you to backup/restore your NAND. You get that choice when you run the HackMii Installer in order to install/update HBC (part of the ModMii guide)

Ok maybe Im using the wrong worlds.

Softmodded means a hardware chip that let me play with game backups via Disc Channel? If not, thats what I wanna say, sorry =P

And yes, Says my HBC is 1.0 but its not, its up to date.

And I'm not trying to update anything, I just want to know which Chip I have on my Wii, I guess I made a few mistakes here ops...

Also my Wii is very old, I bought in 2008.

Softmodded means "installed software to make it run backups and other stuff".
Yours is a hardmodded/chipped Wii, which means "installed hardware to run backups".
I don't think there's any way to find out through software. You could try every single chip update disc to see if it works, but that is not really a good idea.

Yeah, maybe you should open up the Wii, take pictures of the chip and upload them here if you don't recognize them yourself. The warranty is void anyway, and just opening it carefully should not damage anything.

Oh. Well, you'd have to open it to know, but it's probably one of the more popular ones, like WiiKey. Could be a Wiinja too, I think that was the first Wii modchip.
You have a softmod installed though. If you're not using USB loaders you might want to remove everything softmod related like the cIOSes.
