hey i just tried that one but on the 1st step after i extracted the 1st zip file to my sd card and put in my wii and slecet the sd card tab my wii freezes so have to hold the power button down

have tried few sd cards and sdhc cards but keeps doing the same thing

do you know wtas wrong?

many thanks

[dell_xps]

Format the SD to card to FAT not FAT 32, give that a go.
Then put the files back on the card.
what about the remote did you get that working ???

[cleo2525]

right i finally got it to work it kept saying failed at certain points so i kept trying till it went trhough all ok

it plays backups but how do i get the homebrew shop thing on as its not on theres only 2 things in the hombrew channel and they are what i needed to get the backups working etc

sorry for all the questions lol


no i think the controller no good no lights on it at all

[ck-ok]

what are the things in homebrew channel?resynch your controller,if its the homebrew browser that your after try this,unzip file and put it in apps folder and start homebrew channel

[cleo2525]

the wad manager thing and the CIOSrev14 Installer

thats all that is in the homebrew browser

oh will that zip file but the thing on so i can download the emulators and stuff? also is the apps folder on the SD card thats in my wii

will have to try in bit cos my dads decided to go on the bloody xbox playing a game hes completed 10 times lol

i know i sound dumb just everytime it says this is a easy tutorial for me something always goes tits up lol

[ck-ok]

yes that will get you downloading emulators,nothin has gone tits up,dont worry.what are you using to play backups,and are some of your apps installed as channels?

[cleo2525]

i used the files and tutorial that came with the easy tutorial softmod for 4.2

the only things in my channels other than the standard wii ones are the homebrew channel and neo gamma R7 which i need to use to play my wii backups

i did actually when my wii was 4.0e manage to get backups playing but the homebrew shop didnt load

and i had few other channels on with that one, one was a thing so i can play gamecube backups and one to rip iso`s

also the app to play wii back ups was better that this one i have now because i oly had to click it then click start and it came on

but now have to click it then takes you to this other menu and a bit more messing about lol

[ck-ok]

cios dvd dumper put that in apps folder,dvd dumper wad put that in wad folder and install with wad manager,then you will have it as a channel,neogamma forwarder put wad in wad folder and install wad

[cleo2525]

many thanks i got it working :D thank you so much :D

[cleo2525]

1 more think i went on the homebrew apps and downloaded the opera thingy and instaled it but cant find it anywhere

how do i browse the net etc

[cleo2525]

just tried the neo gamma thing u game be above but it says cant find boot.dol

[ck-ok]

opera should be there when start homebrew channel,you can download it off the net search for it on google,to surf the net with your wii,just set up your wii internet channel,check neogamma is in apps folder,if it is uninstall the neogamma forwarder and try this one
