    Hacking Black Screen of Death

    Haven't been around for a while, but I've started getting back into the Wii Scene lately and things have changed since I left! For some reason, all the new games I'm burning (Marble Saga, Moto GP, etc) will burn fine, show up on my channels fine, and then boom. Black screen I'm sure there is...

    Hacking Noisy Wii?

    I noticed when playing games like Skate It or Call of Duty World At War, my Wii constantly sounds like its loading. Pretty much non-stop I can hear disc movement/reading in the console. Wasn't sure if this was normal due to the lack of hardware on the console, or if playing backups was causing...

    Hacking Need advice on playing NTSC/JAP titles

    I've been running 3.3U NTSC for quite some time. Now the scene has started releasing tons of great JAP titles so I was forced to downgrade to 3.2U since 3.3 blocks trucha signed discs. This is great, but.. 3.3U ALSO played all my NTSC titles, and now 3.2 is giving me the "Update System" garbage...

    Hacking Downgrade Issues!

    Currently I'm running 3.3U with a modchip installed. I'm trying to downgrade to system 3.2U since 3.3U blocks trucha signed games (i.e. no Tatsunoko vs Capcom or Pikmin) I know I could use GeckoOS, but why do that when I have the ability to make them work on the disc menu! Question is... when...

    Hardware Animal Crossing : City Folk - Update?

    I've been able to play every game up to this point with no problems, however, when I insert Animal Crossing : City Folk, it asks me to perform a system update. I'm running a USA console NTSC with 3.3U and a Wiikey/clip with 1.9 firmware. Not sure what they want me to update... but for some...

    Hacking Wiikey forgets settings on re-boot?

    Wiikey is installed and works flawlessly. Using 1.9... not sure which letter follow the 1.9, and not really sure how to check, either. Anyway, I put in the Wiikey Config disc, go to Wiikey settings, turn "Allow Disc Updates" ON, hit SAVE SETTINGS, it takes me back to the main menu of the Wiikey...

    Hacking Any way to update without internet?

    Since I can't run wireless in my house, and I can't get a neighbors connection (blah), is there any way I can update to 3.3? I am running 3.2U now, but I used a homebrew to delete my system channels and now I really just want them back... Any suggestions on how I can restore my systems channels?

    My debt, my life, my enlistment

    This past December I graduated from a university that is quickly becoming well known because of their football team. Appalachian State. The 4 years I spent there were some of the best times of my life. Good dope, good local music, good parties, lots of waterfalls to jump off of, all kinds of...

    Hacking ModChipCentral.com

    I know lots of people use ModChipCentral.com to get their orders fulfilled, but I must say, I'm getting a little worried. I placed my order last Monday night, so Tuesday it was sent out at earliest shipment. It's now almost Tuesday, 1 week later, and the tracking information still says my...

    Hacking Waninkoko's Mii Installer...

    I'm about to format my Wii System Memory since I've pretty much destroyed my channels (no news, photo, weather, etc.), but before I do this I really want to make sure I can keep my Mii's. I had all my friends in college create themselves, so it's kind of a nice memory of good times back when I...

    Hacking No Documentation for Wiikey?

    My Wiikey/Wiiclip should be in tomorrow, and I've found the various videos on youtube, images on forums, etc. that show you how to install it and properly place the paper packaging over the clip once it's installed. However, setup discs? Upgrade discs? Why is there no information on this? I've...

    Hacking Any USA modchip retailers?

    I'm having a minor surgery soon and it's going to put me out for some time. I'd like to receive my modchip and install it before I go under, that way I can enjoy some Wii while I'm stuck in bed. The only problem is, I found one company in the US, foundmy.com, and every review says they are...

    Hacking Ordering Wiikey + Wiiclip

    Finally got my triwing to open my Wii, and I was surprised to see I had a D2B without cut pins! I guess that means I can take the less expensive route and go with Wiikey + Wiiclip. I'm pretty much set on this setup, but I heard a few people recently mention their Wiikey's and a problem or...

    Hacking Late night modchip advice

    I'm ready to get my modchip, but I don't know which direction to go! I want to check out in a little bit so my order hopefully ships out tomorrow, but I'm having trouble just finding a source to order from! I'm on ModChipCentral.com right now, and I'm looking at a WiiKey/Wii-Clip/Triwing...

    Hacking Use serial# to find drive chip?

    I'm finally set on getting a chip, most likely wiikey/clip since it's easy and all I care about is booting up my games. No need for watching dvds or anything else. Oh, and hopefully I can update it as well to make sure new games don't prevent me from booting. Anyway, I don't have a triwing...

    Hacking Wii Chips still worth it?

    We've come a long way since the twilight channel was first released. The mention from some about a possible Wii ISO loader makes me wonder how possible this really is. I'd like to chip my Wii, but with the possibility of a loader, I think I'd rather just wait for that. Any suggestions or...

    Hacking Old-School Capcom Arcade!

    I'm trying to get back into those old Capcom games that I used to play in the arcade. I have Marvel vs. Capcom 1 & 2 for Dreamcast, but I'd like to get Marvel Super Heroes, X-Men vs. Street Fighter, and all of those... I never hear anyone talking about them, which is strange, however, what would...

    Homebrew I've had it with NeoDS...

    It's now been about 5 days and I have yet to successfully convert a MAME/NeoGeo/Etc. files to actually work on my DS. I've tried typing cmd, dragging NeoDsConvert.exe into the window, adding -bios6/-bios8 mslug to the end, tried 3 different bios file downloads, everything I can think of. I give...

    Hardware Constant clicking in my Wii...

    I've sort of noticed this happening ever since I got my Wii... I never did anything funky with it, never opened it, dropped it, kicked it, exposed it to water, etc. etc. For some reason, it has problems either reading a disc, or it will constantly go "click...click...click...click" like the...
