As I don't have an NTSC wii, i cant say for definate.
But before installing the 1.9g update. Just go to your Wii system settings and update to the latest firmware.
Then go for the 1.9g.
Then find where the Caps Lock key is

so what are the steps for people with USA Wii?

1. Update Wii to the latest version
2. Update Wiikey firmware to 1.9g
3. Download Galaxy - prominent version
4. Play???

I see there are some fixes and patches on newsgroups. Do I need them or do I just download the prominent ISO and play?

ok this is confusing.
in other places (even on this forum) they say to update WIIKEY FIRST and then update WII FIRMWARE.
and here you say to update the WII FIRMWARE FIRST and then the WIIKEY.
then what do i do ?
i dont want to break my wii.
anyone?
BTW - i have a pal WII.

I think I've the worst problem. Below were the steps I've taken which cost me several dvds.

(a) 1.9g (failed to flash)
(b) 1.9b (failed to flash)
 Update 1.3 (asked me to shut down)
(d) Update 1.2 (asked me to shut down)
(e) Update 1.1 (asked me to shut down)
(f) Try using GCOS 1.3 (able to load the menu but no gamecube controller)
(g) Try looking for gamecube controller (Not sold in my area)
(h) Use the HEX technique (http://psx-scene.com/forums/wiikey/58444-wiikey-clone-install-after-3-0-firmware-how-fix.html) FAILED

I've burnt every dvd using verbatim dvd-r. Some using filechop. Some no need. I've the original wiikey. I have ntsc-j fw3.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I know i am posting on an old topic but didnt want to create a new one simply.
I heard tat this wiikey 1.9g was done by the D2C Key Team from scratch.
And also Cyclowiz could release their update soon coz they were workin on an update before the SMG problem and they were lucky tat their update ran Mario Galaxy.

Any idea bout this?

I have a US/Canadian Wii (NTSC) and did the following with original WiiKey:

1. Put Super Mario Galaxy (SMG) DVD in, try to start game.
2. A message something to the effect of "Unauthorized disc" pops up.
3. Hmm, I should have checked online before trying SMG.
4. Download Wiikey 1.9g, burn on DVD, inserted in Wii.
5. Restarted Wii and let Wiikey 1.9g do its thing.
6. Restarted Wii with Super Mario Galaxy.

It works!

got the same problem as no1r. Maybe its because I still have Wiikey 1.2 installed. Do I need to do an upgrade to 1.3 and then another uprade to 1.9b in order to install 1.9g? Because there is no setup disc for 1.9b available

How can I determine which firmware my Wiikey is on? Since I think Wiikey is never updated, What updates should I do in order to install 1.9g?
(its a wiikey clone as I know)

im not sure what the problem is besides the fact its always scary to upgrade..

i never installed my modchip but i cant tell you i never upgrade before so i have no idea what version it was before (chip version)

my wii is 3.0U

i put the SMG in and it did an update then get me some 001 error with black screen. i thought my wii bricked
then i was told to put the 1.9G upgrade on so i burnt it on my Dvd the only ones that i can find around me that work are Verbatim Dvd-R i get them at the dollar store 2 in a case..

i put the upgrade on there with the FileChop and put it in and my son witnesses the chick with the underwear.. not sure whats up with that but whatever..

so when it was done it rebooted and i put SMG in and sure enough it worked.

not sure what the hype is all about. people are talking about it running at 9x speed when it should be at 6x not sure about the technically issues but all i know it worked for me. hope this helps others out.

    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.

    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
