Hello, I'm having trouble opening the old StartPatch 4.1 to uninstall my previous hacks. I'm getting an wsfs_open: error -106. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I wish I had a bit of that stuff ha ha. I ran out a few days ago. So out of curiosity just for the sake of having the patch available is there a copy of this app floating around that still includes the IOS Reload patch? I don't care for the use of 249 myself but it does offer some other useful possible applications of the same patch.......
Hey ^^
So basically i have a hardmodded wii (wiikey v1) @ 4.2E with nothing but HBC (for GeckoOS and GeeXbox) installed, I had to usa Trucha Bug Restorer to get starpatch running and I was able to get by and apply the 5 region free patches (I touched nothing else)
Here's the weird part... Now Disc Channel properly displays my NTSC games (which it didn't before), but when I go and click to start the game all i get is a black screen.. I checked and GeckoOS still plays the NTSC games fine, and my PAL games work fine from Disc Channel aswell.. it's just the NTSC games on disc channel that aren't working
anything i forgot or did wrong? can anyone lend a hand?

You video system is PAL. That's why NTSC discs won't run natively.
I used AnyRegion Changer to change my machine's video mode to NTSC. It's more compatible for me. The PAL-games work, and so does the NTSC ones.

thanks for the insight.. would there be any danger in doing the same myself? like I said, I only installed HBC and restored the trucha bug, no other modifications (besides startpatch)..
also it's weird, if that is the case, why can gecko play them fine even if I dont force any region in the settings?
thx in advance ^^

I think Gecko defaults to the video standard of the disc. The disc channel does no such thing.
I guess there's no harm in changing only the video mode. I changed it forth and back many times. In the end, it's your choice. Note that PAL channels may not work if you change video mode. All my channels are NTSC, hence no problem.

OK so following your advice, i had to use DOP-IOS mod to trucha IOS35
and then i used anyregion changer to change just the video mode from PAL to NTSC with no other settings change ^^
and guess what?
i'm game!
everything now boots fine from the disc channel menu in full color and no black bars!
perfect, just in time for my NMH2 import!
thx again for your help, m8! ^^

It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem. -

the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze -

but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in

There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
-
@
Veho:
But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".

@
Veho:
Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.

Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need -
