What exactly did you do with the NAND Restorer? You cannot 'remove' your otp and clearing the SLCCMPT would get rid of everything, even your vWii. Which means you cannot boot into your vWii.
The vWii Nand Restorer is a 'restorer' so you can restore a backup made in the past where your vWii was unmodified.

And if you get a black screen in USB Loader this does not need to be an issue with a cIOS. There is no need to use such drastic methods like restoring a NAND yet.

Thank you.:)

A few Questions please:

- Which Version of the USBLoader GX did you use please ?
- In the Settings of the USBLoader GX please check:
- Game´s IOS and Loader´s IOS.Please tell us your Settings.
- Did your cIOS Installation is like this please:
vIOS249[56] (rev 21010, Info: d2x-v10beta52-vWii): NAND Access, USB 2.0
vIOS250[57] (rev 21010, Info: d2x-v10beta52-vWii): NAND Access, USB 2.0
vIOS251[58] (rev 21010, Info: d2x-v10beta52-vWii): NAND Access, USB 2.0
- Are your other Games ok ?
- Which USB Device did you use ?
- How is it formatted please ?
- Did you maybe tried another "Game Version" ?
- Both Versions of Wii Sports Resort (EU and NTSC Version) works without any Change of the USBLoader GX InGame Settings.

Please check this Points.
Thank you and
Good Luck.:)

use GaryOderNichts vWii nand restorer ... and that doesent remove the cios.
if restoring a NAND dump doesn't remove the cIOS, that's probably because you already installed the cIOS before making a backup.
so, restoring that "cios already installed" backup will not delete them, it'll restore that backup you made at that point in time.

- How is it formatted please ?
this one is usually irrelevant, and forcing users to use fat32 is not right.
only "exfat" is not working, but WBFS,FAT32, NTFS and Ext2, Ext3 and Ext4 are working. not only FAT32.
The same applies for GPT, it works fine. both MBR and GPT are working with both wii and gamecube. unsure about other homebrew though. so, mbr is sometime prefered based on which use the drive is intended for. if it's only wii games, it can go up to 16TB in GPT FAT32, while MBR FAT32 is limited to 2TB. MBR is fine for drive smaller than 2TB.
and as I'm here, I'll also tell "active" flag has no effect on consoles, it's a PC BIOS option only.
At least, be sure users are not using exfat :)
but usbgx shouldn't even list exfat partitions so there's nothing to launch.

not sure, as the loader could find it, but if no game at all are working maybe using y-cable if it's a HDD.
using the correct USB Port too. (back-top on WiiU)
Using the wrong port either black screen, or reboots. not sure why it's not always doing the same thing.

don't do that !
that's not a file system error, and trying to restore someone else's dump on your console is not a solution (there are private keys and console ID to change)

your problem is most probably a setting, hardware (HDD ? flashdrive? USB Port?), software (bad ISO)
you didn't answer any of Alexander debugging steps. these are important to understand where the problem is and how to help you without doing unnecessary hard solutions.
