I seem to be having a problem. After I completed the process I tried some backups through USBloader GX, and in some games (specially Mario Kart and Wario Shake It) the wiimote keeps disconnecting - it's quite often and quite annoying. Also, Wario Shake It has an in-game warning of low-battery that sometimes pops up even with battery in full capacity.I do not know if it happens with every game, but I know that when I play the originals of these games, there is no problem whatsoever. I also installed Wiiflow and the problem is also present with it.

Can someone help get rid of this "Communications with the Wii Remote have been interrupted" problem?

Try using a different cios. There should be an option to launch a game under a different cios. Try 222, 223, 224 or 250. I will be updating the guide soon with a better cios with base 56.

Yep. Simple as that. Thank you, Eric, for your help (specially considering how easy it was to fix it). Just for the record, cIOS 222 kept them running smoothly.

Again, Gracias burritoboy!

Hello. I get an "exception (DSI) occurred!" error when I try to update from 3.1e to 4.2e. Anyone have a solution? Tried searching but most of the people with this error have already managed to softmod their Wiis.

Edit: Fixed it by updating to 4.1 first with New Super Mario Bros

are you sure you don't have the D3-2 or D4 drive? do other backups play in the unit?

well...if it plays other backups, then it is not a aD3-2 or D4 drive (and not a factory 4.3U either)....

could be a cIOS/neogamma issue: what version/[base] of cIOS are you using for neogamma?

could it be a bad dump?

DL games can be troublesome for older wiis....they do have a DVD5 version of SSBB (which removes some of the FMV sequences to get it to fit)...you could try that....

my only experience with DL backups was with MPT. for that i just burned the .iso with nero7 (using Memorex DVD+RDL) and ignored all the stuff about setting the layer break and such....i have not had a problem with that burn, but then again, i may have not ventured far enough into the game....i used v4.1 Corped IOSes to play it right from the Disc channel though as well....

this tut won't bring you to 4.3 if you're on 4.2.... there's no reason to go to 4.3. if you want 4.3 however, just install IOS80 and SM4.3 for your region using MMM or the wad manager of your choice....having IOS80 is important!!! ...you'll brick without it. after install, you'll need to also install priiloader again as a SM reinstall wipes that out.

Modmii is the better resource if you're insisting on 4.3 from 4.2 (but even Modmii tells you it's pointless)...link in my sig.

4.2 or 4.3 is irrelevant to getting any game to work...are you trying from a disc (backup or authentic) or USB...

if you're talking about DKCR, mine plays perfect from USB via my setup in my sig....(you can get all the needed files for my configuration from Modmii)

if you're playing from disc and it's saying you need 4.3 to play, then just enable the 'block disc updates' hack in priiloader...

what about netflix...? so long as you have shop channel on v20, you should be able to download the channel right from shop for free.

First I need to say thanks for the people who made this guide.

Second ...

I followed this guide to mod 2 red Wii's. Everything works great except one thing: they cant read any non-original Discs.

I tried to boot a game using NeoGamma and Gecko OS and I have a error, and I cant install a game on Configurable USB Loader cause it cant read the disc. This only happens with non-original discs.

Is this normal? If I want to install a new non-original game on this Wii's I need to use WBFS Manager to do it?

Thanks for the attention ...

Newer wii's can't read backups, period. N changed the drive a couple of years back.

I've uploaded a cios21dx for people who want to try the updated cios21 that should fix some wiimote sync/other issues with wiimotes. Thanks to Davebaol, xabby666 and xflak. Will be working on the guide this week, adding exploits for lego star wars among other things.
