when u installed a new system menu wad (for 4.0) you uninstalled preloader. And you installed a STUB IOS60, which is the IOS used by 4.0 system menu. Unless you have bootmii as boot2, I think you're wii is 100% bricked.

Here is a stickied page of apps that brick wii's

if you notice, ios60 patcher is in the list... sorry... if u send it back to ninty, they might charge u 85 bucks to 'fix' it, but its still cheaper than buying a new one.

I dont think so. If Ninty detects homebrew, the probably charge around €100-€200 ( notice €200 is enough to BUY A NEW WII)

only way to fix it is to use a modchip (can't remember the name of the chip that MAY work, but its still not a guarantee).

u may have voided your nintendo warranty, if possible, try getting them to replace it without letting them take a close look at the console... don't ask how, but it can be done (i've done it, lol)... just come up with a good 'story' for them

If its still under warranty just phone them up and tell them that you did the 4.2 update it froze and when you rebooted your wii you just got a black screen, just play dumb as you have 100% brick they will send you a refurbed one before they look to closely at yours, anyway you have nothing to lose by trying do you?

xflak40 sometimes when you lunch a official game, you'll be asked for update console or not ...

i know that some games have updates in them... thats not whats confusing me

first u said u updated using wanin's 4.0 updater, then u used IOS 60 Patcher (which installed a stub IOS60, which bricked your wii).

then you say u accepted an update from a disk? my question is HOW did u do that if u were already bricked! u make no sense!

if u don't know what bootmii is, u should not be doing anything to your wii... period... google it.

Bootmii, could have save you.
Now...its a nice little brick of plastic.

Try to google something about savemifrii

Wrong. Savemii(frii) wont work.
Q: Why? Explain plz.
A: Savemii(frii) requires system menu to boot up, and since he got blackscreen/NOTHING it wont boot up, and he is screwed without preloader/bootmii.

As i said in my previous reply, you CANT UNBRICK YOUR WII WITH A GC CONTROLLER!
You messed your sys menu up, so you CAN NOT GET IN RECOVERY MODE. (recovery mode is built in the sys menu)
Here is it where you messed it up: but i've try to update IOS to with IOS 60 Patcher.
So the only chance to unbrick it is to get it to Nintendo.
Q: I've downloaded Universal Unbrick Disk V4

A: No, Universal unbrick disc v4, is simply a disc that can unbrick your wii WITH RECOVERY MODE, but since you cant acces it because you messed your sys menu up and got blackscreen, its the end.
