Some more info please :). What's actually not working? Is the problem that the settings page is broken (that's what the proper meaning of "semibrick" is)? And what were you doing that caused the brick?

Can you access Priiloader when holding the "reset" button on boot?
Do you have Bootmii installed as either IOS or as Boot2?
Do you have a nand backup at hand?
And what did you do exactly that made you think the Wii is either bricked or "semi"-bricked?

So the system boots to the home menu?
You should re-install those games, and re-download those homebrew apps that give you that corruption message.
@XFlak might know if it's necessary to restore a nand backup to get rid of the corruption in your case, or just system format would do along with reinstalling all homebrew apps, games etc. :)

Why? are you NAND corrupted? or only said what is dangerous if you use the wrong NAND?

if is YOUR OWN NAND and isn't corrupted, it's fine to restore your backup, IS FOR THAT YOU MAKE, to have a point for going back to a know working state.

May be your Keys.bin isn't fixed, there is a bug on bootmii where the process to restore a backup needs a space between the "L" and "e" of the message "ConsoleID" of the keys.bin and NAND.bin files:

The left one is the image of the generated keys.bin and right is a "fixed" one.

So, if you use the original keys.bin and NAND.bin, the restore will tell you what isn't for that console. Use the program "Bootmii-KEYFIX.exe" to generate the Keys-Fixed.bin and fix your NAND.bin the file Keys-fixed.bin can be renamed Keys.bin file for use on restore.

The program can be downloaded from: https://gbatemp.net/download/bootmii-keyfix.37496/
