Ok, long story short - I was given a modded Wii from a friend - looks like it has a modchip as he had a number of burnt games with it -Looks like he performed a system update using Wii Fit AU - when in fact the Wii is JPN - so now System Menu simply displays Opera Browser error that the page cannot be found.
Not sure which chip or what degree of IOS patching has been done.
Homebrew is installed, but looks like a really old version (Beta 7?) - attempt to rerun LetterBomb said that it could not be done as the wii had to be unpatched???
All I really need is to install WiiMC (which gives me an IOS58 error) and get it connected on Wifi (which i cant without system menu) - but of course having full functionality would be great.
I have run letterbomb on other Wii's before, and installed USBLoader and stuff - so I'm more than comfortable running through troubleshooting etc. to get this sorted.
Did some reading and found recommendations of installing System Menu 4.3J on it to at least get my sys menu back - but dont wont to cause further harm by rushing in...can you guys help me get this up and running again?
