<title>My Wii is a mess, and I don&amp;#039;t know correct terminology!</title>
<description> Hello! Thank if you for your time if you&amp;#039;ve decided to read this! I will now tell the full story in a way that explains my relatively low knowledge of the Wii:
I was happy homebrew user, 4.2u. I updated to 4.3u (I think :p). Unfortunately I decided to Install homebrew for 4.3u by following some strange and questionable youtube tutorial. It worked well. I then made the fateful and dumb decision that my system menu needed to be black. I installed the Korean system menu and it semi-bricked my Wii. I followed Internet tutorials to download and install programs that were usually chuck full of bugs n&amp;#039; errors; I tried to fix my Wii. The programs included DOP-MII, Priiloader, and WAD Manager (Please don&amp;#039;t delete this topic if any of those programs or the files involved are illegal, I&amp;#039;m posting this hoping to gain this knowledge.) I was prompted to use these programs to install/replace a slew of system files. My semi-bricked Wii was not fixed, but turned to a brick of a higher caliber in the process (booting the system menu at all results in a black screen.) Because of BootMii, I can still access homebrew channel... But a program that launches disks from the homebrew channel at a 75% success rate still leaves a hole in the heart of my over-all Wii experience. I WANT MY WII BACK :&amp;#039;( I heard that any software fix could be done as long as I have bootmii and the homebrew channel... (Which I do)... Some of you kind folk I know are mighty savvy with the Wii... Can anybody offer a solution? Thank you. :)</description><link>http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?22,72593,72593#msg-72593</link><lastBuildDate>Sun, 10 May 2026 22:31:13 +0200</lastBuildDate>

I will certainly return at some point in time to try to fix &#039;er up, but at the moment we just bought the Wii U! So I&#039;m currently distracted. A cool system so far, I look forward to seeing a Zelda Title and a Smash Bros. title emerge!]]></description>

This should point out any problems preventing the Wii from booting, and in that way you may be able to fix without having to rebuild a NAND from scratch with Ohneschwanzenegger (which would mean losing all your save data, channels [including VC and WW games], Miis etc.).]]></description>

I think the reason for the wii still not working is several of the wrong IOS being installed or the right ones missing, if I knew the correct ones to be installed... Probably a completely amateur or obvious idea. I think my wii is just about done. Meh.]]></description>

Seeing as you clearly have BootMii/boot2, do you have a NAND backup from any point in the past? If so, now might be the time to restore it...]]></description>

That should fix it, provided dop-Mii doesn&#039;t have a problem in doing so.<br /><br />You should never have installed a Korean system menu on a USA wii, I&#039;m not sure why that would have been advised anywhere. Themes, although not really supported here as they mostly contain illegal elements, work just fine on all regions.]]></description>
