I see quite a few people with "ERROR! Ret = -4100" or something like that but i know its -4100

Installed dvdx or w/e and changed it too 249..

Installed CIOS36_rev5-64-v1042.wad once by the wad installer then after multiple fails of error 4100 i just deleted wad installer installed wad manager and then reinstalled CIOS36_rev5-64-v1042.wad without errors.

Put the .dol in apps folder

used the patcher to patch my backup oddly it took its original 4,589,824 kb into 4,157,102 kb..?

Burned using imgburn with 3 speed then when i tried on wii and still got error 4100 i tried at 2 speed still not working.. even tried at 4 speed..

Then i ran my boot.dol and then it said reading title or something like that then i get error -4100

I don't hate wanin for leaking it my theory is that he let it leak so he could get a huge leak test to see all the issues in it so when he released it wouldnt have many bugs but idk.. =p we may never know.. or will we in 2 weeks? =0?

anyways i did all above heres some info about it all


"Backup im using is mario kart wii..."

"I'm still at the firmware update right before the one where they patched the twilight hack"

"Im in the united states my mario kart wii is ntsc.."

Please help me tell me all the info you need.. Sure i admit i may use this for piracy but i really will buy the games afterwards if i like them im not a complete pirate i can only say "Aar!" halfway see ^^ but i do intent to use this to backup my games.. I do really own mario kart wii also.. Just telling yall so i wont get flamed..

I know your going to say its beta and buggy but.. if this is the one the beta testers are using it has to work sides theres already videos on youtube of the leak working.. I also tried wii play ntsc "backup" and it still didnt work i am patching them properly and burning then properly with imgburn.. Someone said something about imgburn not booking them as dvd roms instead it makes them dvd something else idk.. I'll be willing to do anything for someone who gets this work.. I do also plan on getting a modchip at the end of this.. This is persay a placeholder.. Helps appreciated

I had -4100, to fix it I had to change my BITSETTING (booktype) on my dvd writer to DVDROM for DVD+R discs.

[my pioneer DVR-215 didn't actually support setting the bitsetting, so I had to get hacked firmware... but thats a different story]

IMGBurn tells you what your drive is.. all over the place. In the destination box on the write screen for instance.
If your drive isnt one of the brands listed in imgburns booktype settings, google the model number and "Booktype"

Somewhere in the options should be 'burn dvd from image' or 'burn image to dvd' or something.. no? Check the menus.

No, use imgburn (its free google search it) to burn the image, set booktyping (little button in the lower right hand corner that looks lik a book) to DVD-ROM. Make sure after you install the new CIOS , you reinstall DVDX on 249 (I was getting error's before I did this as well, but not 100% if it was -4100)

I still think its your booktype setting. If you put the most recent disc you burnt back in your drive and fire up imgburn, it'll tell you what booktype it was burnt out (Scroll down the status box)

The bottom section will give you details of the burnt disc in the drive, eg:
If the Booktype doesn't say DVD-ROM the booktype setting has not worked and your disc will NOT work with the loader.

Might want to try this first.

Might be common knowledge already, but make sure that you Start Backup Loader FIRST, then when it prompts you to insert the game do so.

I got an error because I forgot to take it out and would not load at all, forgot but got some error, might be the one you got. Anyways rebot the Wii with the game out, then start up backup loader, then put the game in.

hope it helps.
