i've got a wii in for repair which is acting a bit strange.

It's a new wii (5 months old) they have gone to a store to let people install a chip into the wii(i have no idea which one)

everything was working fine untill 3 months ago when suddenly the wii stopped playing wii games(original and backup).

I tried gc games and those work just fine(original and backups) but when trying wii games it keeps trying to read the discs and displaying a message please insert disc.

because of that i wanted to try the disc drive out and tried loading from neogamma without a cios or anything else...

Guess what... it works like a charm. backups and original wii games all worked from neogamma.

so i thought it was a disc channel problem.

i tried installing system menu 3.2 and checked if it was working there(maybe system menu fault or something), but bad luck that didn't help either.

reinstalled 4.1 and installed preloader.

tried with ios reload to 249 after installing cios and with disc update block didn't help...

so at that point i thought about what if it is the disc channel...

so i tried the recovery menu method for booting games with original wii games.

and again no luck it kept on doing same thing as it was doing with the disc channel.

i'm kinda out of ideas on how to fix it.

i really think this might be software related but then again how can it happen after one month of gaming. and if it is hardware related(bad soldering or something) then why can i boot them from neogamma on original ios 36 with trucha removed?

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
