Hi

I follow the step until..

Code:
I recommend the following for disc loading:
cIOS202[38+60]-v4.wad
cIOS222[38+37]-v4.wad
cIOS223[38]-v4.wad
cIOS249-v14.wad
cIOS250-v14.wad
IOS70-64-v6687[TB+ES_diV+NAND].wad

.. and install those wad files but then i realize that my Wii is using D3-2 drive so i have to load backup games from USB instead.

So, can i use WAD Manger 1.5 to install cIOS249-v16.wad and cIOS250-v16.wad? Do i need to uninstall those v14 first?

what exactly do you have on your SD card, i know the modify.zip but what files?

If this was in replay to my problem
I press A on install a patched IOS36

when it tries to load from the SD card i get the message

Could not open file: sd:/ISO36-64-v3551.wad
Could not open file: sd:/ISO36-64-v3551.wad.out.wad
error reading ISO into memory
ISO36 installation failed

There is nothing on the card beside what I extracted from the modify.zip
I've even re-downloaded it and tried a different SD card with no success.
It still faults out on the errror
"Could not open file: sd:/ISO36-64-v3551.wad
Could not open file: sd:/ISO36-64-v3551.wad.out.wad"
Even though the file is there.

This is whats on the root of the SD card

I'm stuck at the same error others are reporting:

"Could not open file: sd:/ISO36-64-v3551.wad
Could not open file: sd:/ISO36-64-v3551.wad.out.wad"

I see someone suggested doing a network install, and a user said that worked. What is this NUS option and how do I get to it?

And if someone who understands this better could possibly rewrite the Trucha portion of the guide in a post that would help until xzxero fixes it.

I had the same problem, bought an unofficial GC controller and it worked.
