Phew.. So I just started getting into this homebrew scene, and unfortunately didn't find out about it until after the Oct. 23rd update. After doing lots of forum searches (and some googling) I finally got wiihttpd to run and stop giving CIOS errors. I used an IOS downgrader to get to where I am now, followed by the CIOS installer in the Backup Launcher .3 zip file. Unfortunately, I'm still having trouble.

My CIOS is 249
My Backup Launcher is .3

Every time I try to launch a game that I personally backed up by ripping with wiihttpdump then buring to DVD-ROM booktype @ 2x, I get a line full of garbage that I think says something about identifying the DVD. From what I've told you, does it sound like I just have bad discs? Or am I using the wrong CIOS or Backup Launcher?

Thanks!

could be 1 of 2 problems you might have :

1- burn with DVD-R at 4x is the best settings , verbatim is known to be the best media as well .

2- you have the wrong cios installed .

I think theres quite a few threads about this and nearly everyone has resolved it at some stage.
Usually (as far as i remember reading) its to do with a bad install , but as Moe said above , both issues can cause it.
Also it may be a game not on the compatibility list

    I've been to his chicken restaurant he started in his 2nd movie, Holy Chicken, was pretty good. It is only 15-20 miles from me in Ohio. It only lasted 1 yr or so then closed tho.

    There are very few people I just have just an immense dislike of and he's one of those very few people, the only other example is Gene Simmons. My musician uncle on my mother's side of the family actually met Gene once during some event and said he was the most unpleasant person to be around.
