    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    Hi there, my hard drive just blew up, and I'm temporarily loading games off of a USB stick. It can fit in 2 games at a time usually. However I am having trouble accessing my old save files. The USB-loader is on my SD card, and the games are on the USB drive. The save files are on the Wii...

    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    Hi all, is it my TV or why am I unable to play any Virtual Console games using the component cables? The screen goes black, and when I click HOME on the Wiimote it comes back, but only allows me to go back to the menu. The resolution doesn't matter. 480i, 480HD, anything. Any tips?

    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    Hi, I have a quick question regarding the configurable USB loader that Google was unable to answer. I bought this fishing game for my dad, but my Wii won't read legitimate discs anymore after modding - is this normal? It keeps saying the console needs to be updated before it can play the discs...

    Okay, so it's not worth even trying. PS: My USB loader channel just got really messed up. I'm getting some DSI-error, and it keeps going through some files before saying "restarting in 60 seconds". Any tips on this? It only just occured.

    Now, tell me - is there any way to make the Wii play my music CD's? Is it just about using the right program?

    I have a noobish hardware-question - Why does the Wii never power off completely? The light is on even after turning the console off, and it's always a little warm on the side. That's silly and must eat up energy. Must I freaking unplug the power chord every time?

    Hacking FAT32 vs. NTFS vs. WBFS - Which do you use?

    My external hard drive is 500gigabytes, so the easiest option was to have a 200gb FAT32 partition for WII games and leave a 300GB NTFS partition for everything else. Works like a charm!

    Right, okay. What would be the easiest Wad manager to use with Homebrew? I think I used one when modding the console with ModMii. Should I put all the files that ModMii downloaded for mii back on an SD along with the WADs I wish to install and go from there?

    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    Hey, for some reason I can't get this Virtual Console game to work. It's Super Mario Bros. 3 for the NES, and the file is .wad. Am I supposed to play that with the USB loader? Because it's not working, although Wii games are. Also, I downloaded an ISO of Mario Kart Wii (I wanted to try it out...

    Hacking Best Way to Mod Any Wii or WiiU: ModMii for Windows: Official Support Thread

    Thank you for mentioning the third party programs! I got one, made a huge FAT32 partition (something I initially thought wasn't possible, not having dealt with this stuff much), and everything works now! I plugged in the USB loader, and now I'm able to load everything off of it. Once more, a...

    Hacking Best Way to Mod Any Wii or WiiU: ModMii for Windows: Official Support Thread

    Oh, dear, I ran into a few problems. 1. My external HD can't be formated to Fat32, only NTFS and exFat. I tried it anyway, and I made an NTFS-configured USB-loader with Modmii (that is to say, it put it on a memory card). So, I plugged in both the NTFS hard drive and the memory card with the...

    Okay, fair enough, I shall format my external HD as FAT32 and go from there. Will report here soon.

    Hacking Best Way to Mod Any Wii or WiiU: ModMii for Windows: Official Support Thread

    Thank you! I went ahead and completed the whole thing. I think! I'm unable to get a burned Wii game to play. I then tried a second DvD, but it didn't work either. The USB-loader icon and all the channels appear in my list of channels, though. Do you reckon they were just bad copies? (they were...
