If you are using DVD- discs, used high quality media, tried burn speed 4x and 8x, and used clean 1:1 dumps. And have a proper cIOS installed of course(rev19 is proper for example). Then i would say that i should finally update the warning in NeoGamma.

Hmm, maybe i should get results with a different method. Next NeoGamma will check the drive date, and then if a game works for disc it will bug about
"Is your disc a DVD-R? Do you have a modchip? If it's yes and no, then please report XXXXXXXX"


Make sure you eleminate the possible error sources i mentioned above, and when you are sure your Wii doesn't read DVD-Rs, look into usb loading.

Haven't tried Verbatim DVD-R or Ritek G05 DVD-R but have tried Verbatim DVD-RW and a generic DVD-R.

As my Wii is brand new and black, im pretty sure I have the D3-2 drive =(.

the dol says im using cIOS249 r20. it reads the game ID and apploader and all that stuff. when it boots the game, i get "the disc could not be read..." spit out by the game.

using wode + DVD-r, my game shows up in the system menu fine.

Maybe a bad burn or bad .iso? It should throw an error on reading the disc id if the drive wasn't DVD-R compatible. Or the Wode does something it shouldn't do. Are you using cIOS + WODE to run the game? What do you get with an IOS + WODE?

Your drive date is: 20070213, which is the latest known DVD-R compatible date.

The test from NeoGamma is sufficient, not a single false identification yet.
