Are you sure? I tried using cIOS downgrader directly from preloader and it didnt work at all. Also I managed to install cios Rev8 but I had to do it from the SD because it could not initialize the network. The reason this happened was because I had successfully downgraded to 3.2U after being on a hacked 3.3U but then I wanted to go back to 3.3 so I thought in order to that I would need to remove preloader. I tried to do that by formatting my Wii's memory and ended up in this mess so are you possitive that this will work because if it doesnt and I overwrite preloader, I will be mega screwed. thanks for the help so far though

By some strange reason not all the .dol files work with the preloader .dol launcher, but if you install HBC then you can launch Wad Manager and install all the IOS in side a game like mario kart or some other, why did you deleted your IOS'es BTW..??

I formatted my system menu expecting to go back to virgin 3.2U but instead I just preloader. I've installed HBC but wad manager doesnt work so I installed CIOSCORP, but i cannot initialize the network over wifi because I can't set it in the menu. How can I boot Mario Kart nd install the Update? Can I do it with GeckoOS or should I buy a SaveMii?

I had the exact same problem this week. Does it say Systemmenu v0? What version of IOS does it say above that?

I had to get the homebrew channel dol, install the file and then get preloader to autoboot to file (do that in settings) as it wont run it straight from Load File in preloader. Then once it booted into the homebrew channel after a reboot (which many involve pulling the plug out to do so) i ran wad manager and installed the system menu from a wad file (find it on the net) v289 for NTSC and v290 for PAL. I got the update from a rescue disc found on rapidshare and then extracted the update using wii scrubber.

You may need to install an IOS first before the system menu but not sure on that one.

Once I did that i went through the entire softmod process again to get it back up and running but made sure that i ran hack remover before i reinstalled preloader.

This is the only way to fix it if you dont have a network connection as all the software installers connect to nintendo's servers - at least that's what i found anyway, especially after trying to run all sorts of boot.dols and getting code dumps.

Hope you fix it pal.
