Hardware WI-IC modchip

[DookeyDakey]

well anyway, i was asking if the "WI-CI" modchip was compatable with my WII...

i was looking for a wiikey. i found out there that my version of wii is not supported with the wii key and i have to get a D2C chip or something... but it takes up to 31 wires to connect :0

so, compared to the D2C, the WI-Ci seems as a much more basic and easier approach to chipping my wii... but im not so sure that i have a compatable wii to work with it.

i bought it in late 2007... and my serial no. is LAH103****** (if that halps with anything) yer, one of the later ones

i wanted to know if i could still install it... due to the change in wii hardware, it seemed as if i couldn't (due too the wii-key team having to design a new chipping model!). or is it best i get a pro to install the D2C for me?

thanks for your help!

you have most likely a d2c chipset, so you cannot use wii-ic or wiikey.

only way to find out is to open your wii first, then check if your chip says d2b or d2c.

if its d2b --> wiikey
if its d2c --> d2ckey or d2pro.

Regardless, I wouldn't get the WiiC. I was unable to update my sample (which is why I didn't include it in my media tests eventhough I did get a sample for it).

Get a pro to install the D2CKey. It's a little expensive but worth it.

I got mine chipped at OzModChips.com in melbourne FWIW on a recommendation from a friend. Service was pretty good.
