As I said on the title, I downloaded firmware upgrader 4.0 from Waninkoko, and this is the site,
http://dl.qj.net/Firmware-Updater-4.0-Wii-...26688/catid/526
After I downloaded it, I put it in the SD card. And opened the firmware upgrader from HBC. It took a long time to install, so I turned down the TV for about 40minutes (didn't turn the WII off, just the TV), then when I turned it on, it said 'PRESS ANY BUTTON TO RESTART', you know, when you finish installing, so I pressed any button. Few seconds lator my WII gave me a black screen and then no responces. I unpluged my WII and pluged it back. It still didn't work. Only the black screen. Even the WIIMOTE wasn't able to get connected. the lights just blank as I pressed some buttons to turn WIIMOTE on. Didn't work. I couldn't even see the WARNING screen like this, 'WARNING.......... PRESS ANY BUTTON TO START', you know, a note that comes right after you turn your WII on.. So anybody know how to fix or help me with this??

yeah, bricked sounds about right. if you got some sort of insurance, mind as well use it. send it to the nintendo factory. they'll forgive your mistake and intall 4.0, i think. lol
next time, read some topics and read some guides before moving into modding. seroiusly, don't people know how to read anymore?

Same here, all is well after a reboot. I really think that is some of the confusion for many. I installed a patched IOS60 prior to running Wani's 4.0 update. Of course I already had installed the gamma back loader, usb2 patch, the usb loader channel with CIOS's as well.

I am about to do the same thing on my other Wii which is 3.3U not 3.4U like my other. But everthing is installed and running.
