i was installing a csm and it said it installed ok so i rebooted my wii then it came up with a load of couloured lines. thats not wot the csm was before you ask so i used preloader to start up in homebrew channel and i downgraded from 4.0 to 3.2 i didn't realise that it deleted preloader by doing this so i went and tried a different csm same thing happend the coloured lines are back so i thought ok preloader worked before try again so i tried rebooting holding down the reset button to get preloader up...... no preloader so i try again, and again no preloader so is there anyway out of this the system menu is still on 3.2, no preloader, no starfall, please please help me
Can you not just re-install your system menu or just update your Wii, I'm guessing its not completely bricked right?
thats the thing i'm not sure if i am able to because i can't do anything due to no preloader on it but if anyone can throw anysugestions at me i would be very greatful but don't keep saying throw it away cuz i already know that but i'm keeping it and trying to find another broken wii so i can just take the nand out of the one wii and replace it with the one in mine
Well then i guessing its completely bricked, does the savemiifrii recovery menu still work, if it does stick in a Original game with a 3.4 update on it, ex Punchout: while your in the savemiifrii recovery menu and see if it will let your Wii update, if it does it may just fix your Wii
it's like i said there is no menu i did have preloader on there but downgraded when this happened and it must of deleted preloader i'm thinking if i can get a broken wii and change the nand over if that would work
Do you even know what savemifrii recovery menu is? You never said you removed your system menu, only that you installed a bad CSM, therefore savemiifrii recovery menu might still work, If you not going to take advice or even try to unbrick your wii i'm done helping you. And changing your Nand, Good Luck with that one, I recommend talking to bushing and see if he can help you in that area
Good Luck
Good Luck
Heres a thread on it.

and your wii doesn't have to be apart like the video shows either
put your GC controller in port4
press and hold all 4 directions at the same time on the GC controller, you will have to take the controller apart to do this now turn on your Wii if it boots to a black screen with the firmware number in the bottom right hand corner thats means you're now in the recovery menu. if it works just try what i posted a few post up.
and if it doesn't work then you may want to start thinking about different ways to fix your Wii.
edit: If you do manage to get the recovery menu working, it will show your firmware version in the lower right hand corner just place a game in the Wii at this point, with a Firmware update on it higher than 3.2, Punchout contains 3.4, Now it wont let you know that its doing anything so leave the game for about 10 or 15min, than reset your Wii, it will update and fix your Wii.
So let me know if you manage to get the savemiifrii recovery menu working

I'm having the same problem! Except I do have my preloader, when I try to exit to the system menu it says something about consulting the manual, but the text isn't really readable, however whenever I try to do anything from the the preloader it doesn't work out so well, I'll launch wadsmanager to try to install something and it just gives me a bunch of "dump code" i think it calls it, can I use the preloader to do anything? Or should I try this GC controller thing, I have no clue what savemifrii is but anything I will try to help.
I have neither of those I do'nt believe, I didn't know about bricking my system since I only started doing this like today, very noob of me >< so I didn't install them, I put up a topic at http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=162919 with more information on what happened. How would I reinstall a system menu? And do you know where any mirrors would be? I had a 4.0u before all this
