The other day I was not paying attention and accidently updated my Wii to 4.3U. No I know some people are thinking "How can you accidently update you Wii?!" Well, first of all I was talking to a firend while using the console and second...I am not very good with multi-tasking with many things (some things yes, many others no). So Now Here is the issue. From what I can tell my Wii is semi-bricked. Here are the symtoms.
*Can access the Wii Main Menu
*Can load up a game through the Wii's Main Menu (AKA Normal Mode)
*Can load the Homebrew Channel
*Can load Homebrew Apps, but only half way. Meaning I can load them and then choose the IOS version (for example when using the WAD Manager) but then after accepting the settings, it freezes. No black screen or anything, just frozen.
*Homebrew Apps (when loaded from the Wii's Main Menu) will freeze, but with a black screen instead. Sometimes (in the case of USB GX Loader) I get a black screen for around 30 seconds and then a Exception error shows and soon after I get the message "Reboot in 5 Seconds", but after five seconds the Wii freezes at the Exception Error Screen.
*Always After powering down the will from a freeze (by holding down the power button until the light it red) some features accessed from the Wii's Main Menu will freeze as well. Such as when going to the Wii's options screen (In the lower Left hand corner) and clicking "System Settings Management" screen (Not Data Management), I then get a black screen that stays that way. I can fix this by powering down (by holding the power button) and then powering up and then powering down again and once more powering up. Only then can I access the Wii's System Settings.
That is pretty much all I can think of right now. If anyone know what is going on or how to fix this issue, please post as soon as you can. I would really like to please some of my backed-up games.
Thank you.
