Hey guys and gals. So, I have a 4.2 system menu wii and have been running HBC with no problems for about a year. That is until last night. I was playing Super Paper Mario and I saved my game and then pressed the "home" button and clicked "return to system menu". My wii then kinda froze for a few seconds and a black screen appeared saying "Your system files are corrupt. Please refer to the operations manual." So, I restarted my wii using the reset button and the same message appeared immediately after you press "A" to get out of the introduction screen. I have found a workaround, but it is still a pesky bug that I would like to fix. If I restart the wii during a game and don't press "A" to bypass the intro screen (i.e. wait until it automatically goes past the screen) everything works fine. At first I thought that the Super Paper Mario save file must be corrupt, so I backed it up and then deleted it from the system memory. That didn't help and I actually don't think that is the problem Now a brief background story. Last night, before this happened, I went out and bought a new wii controller. The one I bought has the wii motion built into it. When I get back home I start playing Super Paper Mario with my old controller and then look over and see the new one. So I press "home" and reconnect my wiimote in order to sync the new one as player 1. I then play for 10 minutes, save the game, press home to return to the system menu and the above occurs. For some reason, I think that this new controller is the culprit. My old official wiimote automatically syncs with my wii at startup, but the new one it seems like I have to reconnect it every time in order to use it. The only other changes made to the wii last night, before this happened, were: 1. I changed the position of the sensor bar from top of tv to bottom in Wii menu settings; 2. I increased the wii sensor bar's sensitivity; 3. I turned off WiiConnect 24 4. Bought a new Wii Controller (with built in wii motion plus) and tried to synch it as player one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,65129,65129#msg-65129Sat, 18 Apr 2026 09:04:25 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,65129,65133#msg-65133 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,65129,65133#msg-65133 SifJar FixMiiMon, 07 Mar 2011 22:18:49 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,65129,65132#msg-65132 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,65129,65132#msg-65132
Now that I have permanently synched the new controller everything works fine.

Very odd, but I guess I am just glad that it is not bricked because my backup NAND is in the black-hole abyss of my most recent HDD failure. Creating a new NAND backup tonight. :)]]> ragincajun FixMiiMon, 07 Mar 2011 21:55:40 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,65129,65130#msg-65130 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,65129,65130#msg-65130
Other than that, it could perhaps be a mail brick, but I don't really know much about them I'm afraid. You should try to boot your Wii in "maintenance mode" (google for instructions). If that works, I believe that means it may be a mail brick.]]> SifJar FixMiiMon, 07 Mar 2011 21:11:39 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,65129,65129#msg-65129 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,65129,65129#msg-65129
