Hello guys, I'm pretty much new in this area. Maybe it's a little bit long but bare with me lol.

I have brought my wii since years ago, but barely know anything few days ago when I decide to play it again. So I can play my wii using dvd drive, but then I want to update my wii version and it was failed because my wii was modded.

Since I knew it was modded I decided to play using USBLoader instead (I got it installed already) but it didn't work probably because it's outdated, so I basically mod my wii again using XFLAX thread, it's kinda different from what I read but I manage to install the wads,etc. USBLoader was working (but still needs SD card loaded) <-- idk how it supposed to be but I hope it can work without the sd card, but thenn, when I want to play the disc, the icon/thumbnails of the game appeared in the top left channel which means the wii can identify the disc, hit the button and the song play along, hit the start and then the error and eject message appears.

I tried some disc which was working fine before but still the error message appear, so I suspecting the lens, tried to clean it with alcohol method, but still no luck until now. Was it just coincidence or it wasn't working because of the mod? Really appreciate the help.

For me what happens is if you don't have it updated download multi mod manager find it on a tread its common and no your disc drive is not broken unless if you try to play the game regularly and it doesn't work probably but try it a few times

As long as I know it has nothing to do with the mods then it's worth to try. I was just afraid I did something wrong which affect my disc reading. Thank you for your reply ;)

No I don't have riivolution. I just simply run the wiimod.exe and follow through, and then there are 2 folders which is copy_to_sd and copy_to_usb which I assume I can run the usb without the SD, and then when I plugged in both sd and usb and open my MMM, it only reads my SD card, so I still have no clue about the copy_to_usb since I still need to plug the SD card when I want to play the game in usb
