Right guys, ive waded through the forums and read a number of different post about this and my head is still burnt out.

I've just got GH: WT and was gunna look at what DLC content was available and need to install the new shop channel update. Ive got a pal wii running 3.2e, a wiikey v1 installed fully updated, Ive got tonas file IOS51 and shop installer and the HBC channel installed.

Am i right in thinking i need to unzip the file into a folder in the apps folder on the sd card and run the .dol file through the HBC.

What is this goin to install, i know it will install the new shop channel but do i need to install IOS51 for this to work.

If so what will the IOS51 change, i dont really understand what these IOS things are??

I know i need to turn on my wiiconnect 24 for this but once i have run the .dol file do i then need to do a system update through wii settings to get the new shop channel and how is this affected now 3.4 update is out????

Sorry if this is abit all over the place but my head is up my arse at the min!!

Cheers in advance guys for the help!!

well done mate, your on 3.2, stay there, keep your wiiconnect24 on its perfectly safe, Nintendo cant update you when you havent accepted the new tos ok
just don't leave you wii powered on all day long, like some on here, no wonder they experience faults, not surprised...
i fully power mine off soon as iv'e used it.
anyway install both any order!! they just patch them, and your shop is updated

yes, thats exactly what you do.

if you have the tona one, it will do both for you. its a 2 part install in one dol. first it installs IOS51, then the new shop channel.

with my limited knowledge, ive come to the conclusion the IOS's are sorta like drivers and software updates for your computer.

i dont think you need WC24 on for this at all. no you dont need to do a system update, thats kinda the point of this. if you dont want system menu v3.4, then dont update.

your on the right track.

IOS (Internal Operating System) is....the sysfiles....so yea, you've basically got it.
