Hi,

I hacked my wii 4 years ago and installed alot of channels on on my wii, one of them was a Gamcube backup loader that was able to play multi iso gamcube disks. recently, i decided to rehack my wii using modmii and was able to update to 4.1U from 3.2U. My problem is now the gamcube backup loader doesn't work, how do i fix this? or should i use the different channel? I have neo gamma R7 installed but that only plays Wii back ups
 
If you don't have a modchip, you probably installed Wiigator cMIOS to be able to load burned discs.
You will need to reinstall Wiigator cMIOS.

You can have only one "MIOS" system file at a time.
When you used modmii, it updated it to the official MIOS.

MIOS : official, play retail discs
cMIOS: plays burned discs
DIOS MIOS : plays backup from usb, Plays retail disc from disc channel
DIOS MIOS Lite : plays backup from SD, Plays retail disc from disc channel

installing a MIOS file removes/overwrite the one you currently have.
 
Oh I see, so why is it I am able to play wii back ups? did modmii not overwrite the cIOS i had before? or did they just update them to a new CIOS

cIOS and cMIOS are two different things. ModMii installs MIOS (retail discs only) by default but installs working cIOS files for Wii backups. You'll have to install one of the MIOS types described above to play GameCube backups again.
 
Okay, so i followed a guide and installed wiigators cMIOS.

using nus downloader to download the correct Wad, RVL-mios-v10 and putting it on the root of the sd card.

then i wiigator MIOSpatcherv10 app in the homebrew channel to install it.

when i used Neogamma, the wii didn't reset like before, which is good, however when it recognizes the GC backup, it says insert disk and press A,

i hear the drive spinning then it goes back to the previous menu, and loops like this.

on a side note, i noticed i wasn't able to enter the homebrew channel from bootmii, so i used hackmii to install bootmii again, because i thought outdated(I installed bootmii around 4 years ago) and it fixed the problem. I went into priiloader to see if maybe something was turned off for the gamecube mods and noticed bootmii in the menu and click on it, but it said bootmii ios not found....is this a problem?

thank you for your help
