    I got given a wii which is chipped. I’ve never touched a wii until now. How do identify what sort of chip/mod and region I have so I can find the right method to download and load games on a usb

    Having a modchip won't help you load games from a USB drive. It only plays burned discs. Pretend the Wii has no chip and follow a guide to softmod it.

    The console already was softmodded, then. Did the console come with an SD card or USB drive? Is the USB Loader GX you're talking about a channel on the system menu?

    Either resoftmod assuming the wii is a virgin using modmii's main wizard, or use modmii's syscheck updater wizard
