    Hacking Not a brick, but not usable for HBC either

    Problem resolved... I finally decided maybe one of the system buttons was stuck or something. I removed the Wii from it's little cubbyhole to see if there were any buttons that I'd overlooked. When I pulled it out I see something completely unexpected. There was an extra black cord plugged...

    Hacking Not a brick, but not usable for HBC either

    I can't get into preloader to set it to do anything. Is there a way to do t manually in the hacks.ini? Also, Preloader was only recently installed as part of trying to fix it. Bootmii was alone originally. Thanks for the help folks. If everyone is tapped I may have to give up on it. I'll...

    Hacking Not a brick, but not usable for HBC either

    Thanks for the help. I set the boot delay to 10. Bootmii flashes on the screen for half a second then it goes to a black screen for 10 seconds. Then the Wii goes into its normal boot sequence requesting to press A. Preloader also never gives me any kind of config screen. I only know it's...

    Hacking Not a brick, but not usable for HBC either

    Thanks all. Unfortunately I'm still in the same boat. Bootmii flashes briefly on startup but doesn't stay up long enough for me to click anything. Preloader is installed but I have yet to actually see it. I know it's installed though because if I boot without the SD card in it complains it...

    Hacking Not a brick, but not usable for HBC either

    I've tried two wiimotes. They also function fine in games loaded by disc. Tried uninstall and reinstall of HBC after DOP of IOS 36 and 60 (above). I have confirmed the files for bootmii are in their correct location on the card. Would it be safe/prudent to replace the other IOSs with the...

    Hacking Not a brick, but not usable for HBC either

    metroid4life14, When I access HBC, if there are 4 or less items on the list, it loads fine and the apps load, but not correctly if they use a GUI. If there are more than 4 items in the list of apps, the screen jumps quickly back and forth between the the two screens of apps and I'm unable to...

    Hacking Not a brick, but not usable for HBC either

    Thanks Mrgarrison. I went ahead and tried it but the results are the same after replacing 36 and 60 with that tool and uninstalling/reinstalling HBC. Would it be safe/prudent to replace the other IOSs with the same tool in case I fat fingered somewhere and borked one of them?

    Hacking Not a brick, but not usable for HBC either

    Wii was bought June 10 2008. No idea what the original system menu was as I didn't even think of hacking it that far back. Additional: I've tried 6 different SD cards including two that are specifically on the bootmii compatibility list. I've also tried various format techniques for FAT...

    Hacking Not a brick, but not usable for HBC either

    I really wish I'd done my research ahead of time and/or found this community earlier. Now I come humbly seeking help to figure out what I did wrong. I'll try to be as thorough as I can here and include as much info as I can recall. I started with the guide at...
