    thanks for the info Yeah I noticed that last bit about the bootmii install because when i redid this Wii it said can only install bootmii as IOS. i have never seen that message so i found it strange. So thats why it said that. good to know

    Hacking Oh god I think I messed up/bricked my friends Wii

    you noticed how quickly i fixed the problem once given a link. I normally dont even make threads when i have tech problem because i know the internet is a huge resource of information and im pretty good at figuring out how to fix things. The problem with this one is I had no idea what the...

    its weird how it seems like youre trying to make me sound unreasonable. I was cautious but not THAT cautious. The dop-mii report is called SysCheck and you can save the log which is what i kept posting. Im not confusing anything. I dont know what type of system check youre talking about but it...

    I did a fresh install. Reformated everything and installed 4.3U. Not taking any chances with the setup he had. Bootmii is on there now obviously and Priiloader.

    I dont think so. Pretty sure nobody told me how to restore HBC from preloader. I think the reason was that preloader is too old and doesnt have the functionality necessary to restore HBC by itself 1. Im not sure what that means. Maybe what your saying is my friend set me up with a lemon...

    yeah exactly right. I hate how jittery i was about this stupid thing. Im not gonna end up in this situation again. if i ever have to do any mods for anyone that already has a modded system, im taking major precautions.

    Hacking Oh god I think I messed up/bricked my friends Wii

    Yeah i knew you were right. I was just too hesitant to pull the trigger because your solution was so final and so many other people had seemingly safer options. So if you had to guess, what do you think went wrong? This is absolutely correct. I realize now that i dont know as much as i...

    Hacking Oh god I think I messed up/bricked my friends Wii

    Well i understand its different but how do i know the difference? I downloaded one and it doesnt say wiibrew (i had another one that did say wiibrew) so hopefully this is the right one how do get BootMII going. Can can i install it with boot.dol from preloader? or is that something i have to...

    Hacking Oh god I think I messed up/bricked my friends Wii

    no i havent done any of that but im willing to give it a shot. so you say i should run DOP-MII V15 (im using v12 right now but i can switch back over) and not Wii-Brew version? not really sure what that means but i guess it doesnt matter as long as i can tell which one is which. i assume the...

    i got your pm. now i see why you sent it. yeah the system check showed IOS60 is present. all the patches disabled so that means it installed correctly right? i did try to boot the system menu but its still the same.

    You're off base here. This is a problem solving thread. Your suggestion of throwing the baby out with the bath water has no place here. Also yes I offered the guy another Wii the day it happened but he wants this one for some reason. Yes this is definitely not worth my time but i got myself...
