PROBLEM SOLVED

QUOTE said:
So, first I had System Menu 3.4E ,cIOS38r14, HBC and Preloader.

Now I updated to System Menu 4.1E and installed Preloader again, but I had the old hacks.ini (for 3.4E) when i did it. Now the Preloader doesn't boot, neither with the Reset+Power. I've already put the new hacks.ini but it still doesn't boot. How can i fix it?

Also, is it normal the new SD menu bricking when it tries to access my sd card?

Thanks in advance.

You need to run the hacks remover i believe so it will erase all the old hacks from 3.4 after that you should be able to apply hacks from 4.1

Sd menu is probably bricking because you still have bannerbomb on your sd card.Get rid of it and it wont "brick" the sd menu anymore.

thanks for the reply.

so I run hacks remover and then do what? install again preloader? or just put the hacks.ini on the sd card?

EDIT: tried hack remover and it failed

EDIT2: sd menu not bricking anymore, but can't launch wiiware from there

try reinstalling preloader and using the new 4.1 hacks file with it.You probly tried using the hacks from 3.4 on 4.1 and it messed something up

also wii ware and vc games won't work from sd card unless ios60 is patched first.

get dop ios 7 and patch ios60 but make sure you do this before installing preloader.If you patch it after preloader is installed you
will get system menu is corrupt message.

if you do this step from my guide you can update IOS60 offline

on this last one, make sure to uncheck pack -> wad

navigate to IOS, IOS 60, choose v6174 and click start NUS Download.

You should end up with 6 folders named as numbers in the folder where you extracted NUS Downloader.

*note: the
36430015.png
folder will be
96615718.png
instead if you downloaded the 4.1e system menu instead

In each of those folders [with the exception of 000000010000003Cv6174], there is some files and a .wad.
Take the .wad out of each folder and place them on the root of your sd card.
When all 5 files are on the root, grab the "System Menu-NUS-v449.wad" [or System Menu-NUS-v450.wad for pal users] and place it in the folder called "wad" on the root of your sd card.
Copy the contents of the 000000010000003Cv6174 folder to the 00000001>0000003c>v6174 folder. [important]
