Look, you weren't supposed to follow the whole guide. You were supposed to get the patched IOS70 and install the darned thing.
xzxero said:sigh, your thinking about this thing too hard.ktorpil said:I can't even try to resume following the guide. When I try to start the system menu with IOS70 I get corrupt message. I can't select IOS 249 anymore because it is vanished! I tried selecting 30 and 60, they both show blackscreen and nothing else.
I can't even start HBC from preloader, it says: Error autobooting HBC, maybe title not installed?
Any more suggestions before I throw the damn thing out of the window?
autoboot this .dol from preloader by putting it on the root of your sd card
run the 4.2 cboot2 method to get cIOS back into your system.
then go straightly to wad manager to install the system menu 4.2 .wad you can get from NUSD.

I erased everything from the SD card, put the boot.dol file in it, when I select Installed File on preloader, it says Error autobooting file, try reinstalling! Could not open file! When I select Load/Install file it says ...d! find any executable files in the root of the SD car.

ktorpil said:OK so I started your guide all over from the beginning and it gave an error when I tried to install IOS250-64-v65280.wad . Tried a couple of times, didn't work. I uninstalled it first then it installed than I uninstalled it and proceeded to uninstall other wads. Pressed home button to return to HBC, it didn't, system menu came briefly and THE SYSTEM FILES ARE CORRUPTED error cameLol indeed.
I'll now try Waninkoko's updater BUT I first want to restore my backed up NAND. And I STILL DON'T KNOW how to do it. Help?

Ok xzxero, my patient friend, I selected System menu IOS as 202 from preloader settings and system menu came up finally. Every channel including SD channels is fine, both older and newer PAL backups run fine, NTSCs don't, HBC runs fine.
As soon as I enable any preloader hack, wii keeps restarting itself.
Ran nintendo's internet updater twice, preloader and HBC were unaffected, stood right there, changing IOS to 70 gave the same error so I stick to 202 right now.
I played some Wii and GC games (it even ran an NTSC GC backup fine), surfed the net, browsed the shopping channel, played a couple of VC/Wiiware games from the SD card, downloaded a PAL version of an NTSC backup, it ran flawlessly.
At this point, I'm considering taking heed of an ancient Chinese proverb: "If something works, don't fiddle with it" and setting the preloader to autoboot system menu using IOS202, disabling all hacks.
1- What will happen if I uninstalled preloader? Will it cause the system menu to run from IOS70 (which obviously, can't)?
2- If I deleted IOS70, how is it possible that my wii runs so flawlessly (aside from being unable to load NTSC backups)?
3- Why doesn't nintendo's updater do anything? And if I'm on 4.2, why do I get system update available notification everytime?
4- To be on the safe side and install any missing/corrupted IOSes, should I again use a guide to updating my Wii to 4,2?
5- If yes, what will my starting point be? Should I consider myself on 4.1 or 4.2 (wii settings menu shows 4.2E) ?

get into wad manager and install the system menu wad 4.2
yes your right, he should also get IOS 60 v6174 and install that before he install the system menu 4.1xfcrowman said:xzxero - doesn't he also need the oldest version of IOS60 as well? He said in an earlier post that he did an official nintendo update. The official update would have replaced his IOS60 with a stub; therefore, if he only installs the sys menu 4.1 wad, he'll brick and preloader will be uninstalled.

good eye.

Ridding of preloader (along with other things) fixed it!!
About the VC titles, did they work fine before? Maybe they are of different region?
Tip: Use an emulator.
