Hacking Hacking - Black screen on Neogamma

[universe2o6]

I just got my Wii and I'm attempting to fix it up so I can play backups.
Version: 4.2U
I've got homebrew installed, trucha bug restored, I even got an N64 emulater working (playing some F-ZERO the other day)
When Firing up neogamma R8, I come up with the same problem I saw posted here on this board on December, 2009
The screen goes black, Wii mote turns off and i can't do anything but eject a CD and unplug the Wii to turn it off.
Google doesn't seem much helpful and I can't find the answer anywhere here...
Ive tried installing a different cIOS, using the cIOS installer. I overwrite my IOS36 but I can't do anything with the IOS249 that everybody talks so much about.
Any help??

Why can't you install 249? Also side note, you can hold down the power button on the wii for a hard shut down.

If you get some updated IOS patcher, it will allow you to install a patched IOS36 to IOS236. Do that with all patches it offers, which includes a patch that allows IOS236 to overwrite the stub IOS249 you have. Then start the cIOS rev20 installer, tell it to use IOS236 during the installation and install the cIOS to IOS249 with base IOS56, and it should work.

Also get the latest NeoGamma, it will start even if you have a stub IOS249, it won't play backups in that case, but it will tell you which IOS it's actually using. If that's not a cIOS, or IOS249 something, you don't have a cIOS installed.

When I press A to patch 249, the app freezes
