    Hacking Mario Kart problem

    I believe they are Ritek. The weird thing is that all other backups tested work without any problems whatsoever. It's only Mario Kart that gives me grief. This makes me think that the media is not the problem. Still, if I can find another brand lying around here, I'll give it a go.

    Hacking Mario Kart problem

    Yikes! That does sound harsh. I've tried the Gamma loader as well as Softchip. Neither work. I have tried other isos to make sure that it wasn't my backup that was corrupt. None of them work.

    Hacking Mario Kart problem

    No. There was nothing connected to the Wii except the power adapter, the TV-out, and the sensor bar.

    Hacking Mario Kart problem

    I've searched all over these forums, but I've been unable to find a fix. I've downgraded my Wii to 3.2u, installed Starfall, and installed the rev 7 cIOS and the gamma launcher using EmperorOfCanada's guide. All backups I've tried work fine except Mario Kart. I've tried multiple burns at...

    Thanks a lot guys! I uninstalled the old cIOS and installed Starfall and the rev 7 cIOS. Then I installed a WAD for the gamma launcher and everything is working fine! Thanks again for your help!

    Hacking Help upgrading my Wii

    Seriously? That's easy as hell! The guide I read had a bunch of other steps, such as installing Starfall. Do you know if online play is possible with the cIOS rev7? Edit: I read up on WiiBrew about Starfall. It seems like it'd be a good thing, skipping disc updates. Is it good to install, or...

    Hey, first off I want to thank everyone here for all the work they are doing on the Wii. It's really awesome. I have a 3.2u North American Wii. I currently have the Twilight Hack installed, along with the Homebrew Channel, WiiGator's 0.3b cIOS249, and WiiGator's Launcher 0.3b. My question is...

    Hacking Green Screen Problem Playing Games from other regions

    I am in the same boat as you trislett. I have PAL backups of PES 2008 and Twilight Princess. Both give me a green screen when I force NTSC. I've tried using Wiifrii on them but it hasn't helped. I'm curious to know if there's a workaround.

    Hacking PES Pro Evolution Football 2008 (PAL) problem

    Also, I'm on firmware 3.3, using Wiigator's loader 0.3. As I said in my previous post, everything else works fine. It's just this one backup that's giving me grief.

    Hacking PES Pro Evolution Football 2008 (PAL) problem

    I'm trying to get a PAL backup of Pro Evolution Football 2008 to work on my NTSC-U Wii. I've tried patched and unpatched, and neither work. I get a "disc ID failed" message. However, when I look at the compatibility list, it says that this game IS compatible. Am I doing something wrong? All my...
