Did you try installing the system menu wad using a different ios other then 249?

Edit : Also try using a different sd card it might make a difference.


On a side note i decided to install a bugged ios70 on my system after seeing this topic and right after i did it i realized i had preloader already installed.

Sure enough i got the system menu corrupt message.

Reinstalled system menu with no issues though and now im using star patch instead of preloader.

Never really had good luck with preloader for some reason.

I had the same!
So i did it so:
I Have burned Universal Unbrick Disc the newest version .Then while the wii had been booting i have pressed Y or X on the GC Pad and it has booted it and opened wad manager. Using the manager i've installed the sys menu again.

sabin... you dont install ios 249.. in ios 70 slot.. not takin no advice from you as that woudl definally screw up my system.. so forget ios 249.. i use ios 249 to install other unsigned ios's... or 222... eithe rone will work .

the issue isnt getting wad manager to work.. that works perfect now.. the issue is getting the damn system menu back up and running... ios70 works perfect.. alogn with every other ios there is on the sysem..

ive tried another sd card.. formatted.. fat and fat 32.. got nus to download sysemmenu 4.2u again.. still same.. 1022 error... few more things to try maybe? .. i dunno.. im happy i can use the wii and play the games.. but unable to load sysem menu. haha.
any advice just keep coimming iwth it.. ill try anythign .. as long as its not comming from Sabin... his advice will brick the wii 100%.

Forgive me if I'm of no help, but if your network settings are somehow intact, can you run Waninkoko's Firmware updater 4.2?

Here's an idea.

Install an older system menu like 4.1 but make sure you have the ios that is used by the system installed first.

This is risky because installing the new system menu will get rid of preloader completely.


Also you say wad manager runs fine.If it was running fine then you wouldn't be getting an error when installing the system menu wad.

I did some googling and found this

"You will also get the 1022 error if you are trying to install a wad that has allready been installed"


So why not uninstall the system menu and then reinstall it right after wards that should put a fresh system menu on your wii.

that'll give you a black screen brick cause it will delete the settings.txt off the Wii

Everything ive seen on google points to the following

Most likely incorrect format or corrupt SD card. Memory might be full.

Channel data already detected(wad already installed)

What if he reinstalls it right after uninstalling it without every exiting wad manager?
