Softmodded the Wii quite a while ago now, possibly about this time last year, IIRC.

Downloaded a couple games for the lad a few days ago and they won't play. Error given is "Disc read error" and 493 or 693 or something...?

The games were WiiFitPlus(EUP) and 101In1PartyMegamix-pal.

Is it that the homebrew on the Wii is old, or that I've burned the discs wrong, or on the wrong media? (I know how to burn standard ISO files, are Wii ones the same prinicipal, or do I need to tweak, or change the burn options etc?)

Should I be updating the official firmware on the Wii...?

Any guidance much appreciated!!!
 
I've read too much info today, and downloaded too many files to sort this, and now I've got myself completely confused.

It looks to me like there are new methods to softmod/fix the Wii now, is that right?

Can I get a pointer to what I need to be looking at? If there are new methods, would I be better changing to that?

Just point me in the right direction, and I should be fine. I'm currently on 3.2 IIRC, which, if I've understood correctly, should now be updated to v4 at least?

The following info is the SD card that is in the Wii at the moment. (Done about 12 months ago.)

Code:
You don't have permission to view the code content. Log in or register now.

Any advice, much appreciated.
 
Thanks for that, I'll have a gander... Fingers crossed eh! ;)
 
OK, so I've read the readme's etc in the Ultimate file. I think it's all coming back to me, or will do, when I sit down in front the Wii to do it...

One question though, that I don't think I can see covered...

Do I leave all the old files that are on my card already, or wipe it and start again just using the new files from the Ultimate file...?
