Just off the top of my head (untested) I would recommend ModMii and running its Wizard to get a fresh start. It will install the latest IOSes, I'd also follow the release topic to see what other members say and what has been successful.
I been away from updates and whatnot for my Wii as well.
Is this ModMii for virgin Wii's or can it also be used for hacked Wii's as well?
Either or. Assuming you didn't do anything like change your system menu region, the safest thing to do would be to update to 4.3 through the system updater and then use modmii.
I would recommend making a NAND backup just in case shit hits the fan
Well for starters:
My Wii is on 4.1U version
I have priiloader installed
HBC
I think that's pretty much it, I got a few other things for the HBC like neogamma and other stuff.
I have never changed my System menu region, it's always been (U).
okay since you're on 4.1 you might be okay. I assumed you were on an earlier version.
Basically what you're going to want to do is install the IOS's that came with 4.2 and 4.3 (I use DOPMii). You can leave the system menu as is. Get the d2x installer - in slot 249, use 56 as the base. in 248 use 58 as the base. In 247 use 57 as the base.
Download USBLoaderGX, throw it on your SD card. Use Wii Backup Manager to put the SS and Kirby ISOs on a USB drive. Put said USB drive on the bottom USB port of your wii. Launch USBLoaderGX. And play
For SS, you may have issues if you've never played a motion+ game before. If it doesn't load, go under settings and click "load alternate dol" - you'll get a list when you try to start the game. Select "player.dol" and watch the movie. Sometimes the sound glitches up really badly, so mute the TV
All of this is probably described in more detail in one of the guide threads.
If you want, it'd probably be okay to just update to 4.3 and then run Modmii. It'd be like modifying an unmodded 4.3 Wii at that point.

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though. -
