So the problem goes as follows.

I put in a gamecube disc (in this case F-zero GX) and i click the game channel and you watch the wii disc spin away and the gamecube disc go down giving you that good ol Gamecube screen. I click start, and after hearing the disc spin a few times, the screen goes black but the game is still running (you can hear menu sounds and navigate around the menu still). This forces me to hit the power button and restart the wii. When i do...the wii boots up however, it is now in 480i resolution vs 480p which it was in before i booted the game.
Next, i tried going to the backup loader, i run the backup loader, and all i see is the black background with the version number and "backup loader" written across the top but with no menu. so i have to hit reset to get out of here as well.

I told me friend about this, he told me it was probably just a corrupt MIOS/CIOS so he instructed me to reinstall it. i went to Wanin http://www.starcube.co.uk/tag/wanin/ and downloaded the latest one you see there. cIOS 38 rev14. when prompted which IOS i want, i selected IOS249. The installation went smoothly, though taking some good 20 minutes er so. Repeated what i did before, same results.


My wii should be on 3.2 with the twilight hack etc. i also have starfall installed to prevent those pesky updates.

Anybody have any ideas at all? Regular wii games still boot up fine from the game channel.
Thanks
Luca

i'm guessing i want the MIOS then right? the GC games i'm trying to run are real discs.
any idea where i might download it? i tried googling for the MIOS earliar today but i couldn't find it.

i only need cMIOS if i try gamecube backups then right? or would this operate as a MIOS also

    It's not the movies or games downloads that I would worry about, like breaking into networks, downloading encrypted things, spying on network traffic. I have seen so many "Top Secret" seals on files when I was a kid
