    Hacking Problem with Sid meir's pirates with CFG usb loader

    I had the same problem with USBLoader. Switching the IOS to 224 solved it for me. It's a bit deceptive because even using 224 it hangs on that wheel spinning for 15-20 seconds; but finally proceeds. Using any other IOS it would hang there indefinitely. Hope it helps. -Prim

    Hacking Black screen brick.

    Kind of a thread jack mayonaze; but i understand your concern. I don't know what these guys will say but here's my advice. Backup your nand before doing any major mods/updates. Anytime we are modifying or messing with critical components of our system software we are taking a risk of...

    Hacking Black screen brick.

    Honestly, the Wii itself isn't the biggest deal to me. The save data has much more value. If no suggestions for saving the system; is there any possible way to recover the save data? thanks again -Prim

    is it possible that a failed priiloader update could affect the sysmenu? Seems weird. I am not sure if it matters but i had priiloader configured to boot to priiloader upon powering on. -Prim
