The point of homebrew channel is to get free games that you cant buy in shops that have been made by hobbyist coders for fun. Homebrew has been abused by some people to allow the downloading and playing of retail games you dont own, and most of the tools used for this require cIOS. That is why I assumed you were doing illegal stuff. I apologize profusely if I made a wrong assumption. Please tell me what you where trying to do when you were told you needed cIOS.]]> SifJar Getting StartedTue, 25 Aug 2009 20:26:37 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,30541,30727#msg-30727 Re: Officially slow but too shot out to quit try'in ...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,30541,30727#msg-30727

You need to download homebrew games and put them in the apps folder. Read the FAQ, its at the top of one of the boards on this forum.

Sounds to me like you're trying to use warez applications to install pirated content. Thats not supported here and is also illegal.

What application are you running?

I can't be running any app because I cant get into ANYTHING to download ANY... Plus I've read threw that FAQ and most of it is Greek to me

Look what I've done is download (as instructed by WiiBrew.org), aad1f_v108 and hackmii_installer_beta3 I've followed the instructions to put that on my SD card and installed the Home Brew Channel onto my Wii (at least I beleave I've done all that so far), but other than pop'in some bubbles what the hell do I do here? Can any1 help in EZ 2 understand terms a not so computer litterate fool like me could understand please? If not that's cool too. I can keep buying new games for the grand kids I don't mind I simple thought this was as it says it is that one can download games from HBC

But dont accuse me of anything other than doing what this place says to do... Now if what all you arer doing is illegal & one's simply not suppose to ask for help then say that and I can move on

Thanx any how]]> PoppiesBluff Getting StartedTue, 25 Aug 2009 19:07:58 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,30541,30722#msg-30722 Re: Officially slow but too shot out to quit try'in ...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,30541,30722#msg-30722 SifJar Getting StartedTue, 25 Aug 2009 18:39:24 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,30541,30719#msg-30719 Re: Officially slow but too shot out to quit try'in ...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,30541,30719#msg-30719 MattMan Getting StartedTue, 25 Aug 2009 18:32:12 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,30541,30717#msg-30717 Re: Officially slow but too shot out to quit try'in ...http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,30541,30717#msg-30717

If I go to the HBC I see blue/green water & bubbles & that's it!

Then if I press the home button I get

Launch BootMii
