    Hi there ! I recently bought yet another Wii to mod it and keep it as a backup in case my other modded Wii ever goes south... Inadvertently to the seller it seems, the machine is already hacked ! :( I hate buying an already hacked Wii, as I prefer to do it myself and make sure all is done...

    Thanks again XFlak ! What selection should I make then in the options bellow ? [/spoiler] auto You know what XFlak, I am beginning to think it would be much easier if I tried to wipe the system to factory settings by going into the Wii settings and wipe clean and hack the machine from...

    Thanks for all your help XFlak ! I tried the first option, it still doesn't want to go... For the second option, when I run ModMii... What Menu item should I select ? 1= SNEEK Installation 2 = Emulated NAND Builder (for SNEEK) 3 = All the above (Recommended for first time SNEEK users) 4 =...

    Oh wow !!! Thanks a lot for the advice XFlak ! I really appreciate. Now if only I knew how to read chineese... :unsure: Kidding aside, I am a bit overwhelmed by all this info, and don't really know where to start with all this... I would like to give a go on your first idea... But I am not...

    Anybody has a guess at what the problem could be ? If not, I guess I'll have to forget about this then, and maybe try my luck with another machine... Ironbass :D :D :D

    Hi XFlak, and everybody ! I just tried the problematic hard drive on my son's Wii and, just like on my own Wii U setup, it works perfectly on that machine too ! So where I'm standing at now is that the hard drive works on my son's Wii and on my Wii U setup perfectly... But not on my own...

    It is a ac plugable drive. I will see if I got another power supply to try out... Then again, it DOES work perfect on my Wii U setup... Ain't that confusing ? Ironbass :O :O :O

    I am even more confused now... The Hard drive I use on my son's softmodded Wii setup has a few emulators installed on it... He also has CFG Loader and SaveGame Manager GX... His setup works A1 on his machine... I tried plugging it on my own softmodded Wii... Turns out it's doing the same...

    Hi everybody ! It seems odd that I am able to load games from emulators right from my hard drive and all runs OK, but as soon as I try to load a GC or a Wii game via any loader, it doesn't work ! Even SaveGame Manager GX tells me my USB device is not initialized ! And the same hard drive...

    I tried both, with Ustealth on and Off... Interestingly enough though, I checked (I left my SD card out of my machine, loaded Homebrew Launcher) and there are some emulators on the USB drive... and THEY WORK !!! How can I be able to load emulators from my USB drive but any loaders I tried to...

    I am using the right port yeah, the one that's closest to the edge, and my external hard drive is plugged into the wall... I managed to get a system check... [/spoiler] auto auto So I try to run this in ModMii and it tells me that my softmod is up to date... And then closes by itself...

    My hard drive is formatted to FAT32. My USB Loader GX was downloaded yesterday, but I nevertheless tried to update it with the files from where you were referencing... I don't know what's going on, now the loader is stuck in the ''Loading- Initialize usb device'' step... it won't even load...

    The thing is, it works perfectly with my Wii U... I suppose you can use a drive that contains Gamecube and Wii games on the Wii and the VWii, right ? Or should I get two different drives to do the same job, one for each console or not ? What would be the reason that it works perfectly fine on...

    OK, I managed to update the IOS236 and the 20 files that were wrong using Modmii... Now I tried my USB Loader GX and the problem persists... I am now trying to run another systcheck, but the first time it got stuck on IOS248... I have tried a second time and now it's stuck on IOS247...

    Hi everybody ! Not too long ago, I got some amazing help fixing my children's Wii with which I was experiencing a banner brick... Now I dusted off my own modded Wii from about 2 years of inactivity. It was working perfectly fine when I boxed it then... Now once I try to load games with USB...

    Thanks for your help again, Alexander1970 ! I tried the other version of this emulator, but it doesn't do any better than the other version... I don't know if this means anything but I noticed that the green light of Drive A is lit on when the default ''Master.dsk'' file is loaded in, but when...

    and now with the rtx video upscaling, and sdr->hdr conversion, even more reason to go nvidia
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    both of which work well in potplayer
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    amd is a bit cheaper though
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Cheaper and they are less stingy with the RAM not a big issue now but I can imagine in a yard or two things might be different
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Year not yard lol

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
     +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding
     +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
