Hey guys, i think i might have a similar problem with my wii too. It's just that when I tried to use av cable, it worked but my display on the tv had a visual noise and was glitchy. Still playable aside from the distracting problems.
Also another thing to note, when i tried to use the component cable with my wii, my tv displays no signal. The same thing also happened when I tried to use a component to hdmi converter with the tv / my pc monitor.
Lastly i tried to do this exact workaround from the gamefaq (sorry I couldn't give the links due to anti spam error) :
"Do you still have access to the SDTV or does your HDTV have composite inputs?"
Try this:
- turn off wii
- connect component cables to wii
- connect GREEN component cable end to COMPOSITE video input
- turn on wii, you should see the menu in black and white
- go to wii setup menu and now you can select EDTV/HDTV mode, as soon as you do, the screen will go blank.
- unplug from COMPOSITE video input and plug into appropriate COMPONENT and audio inputs on your HDTV.
- you should now see your wii menu in 480p
-enjoy!
I managed to do that, but the same error of "no signal" is showing for me only for the component cables. Does anyone know what is the solution to my problem?
