Mail brick help! wii freezing

My wii either freezes on the health screen or freezes a couple seconds into the system menu. Actually nowadays, only the latter occurs. It works in maintenance mode. It started after the blue light on the drive was flashing and I had a new message. I have no idea what the message was because it froze. So I suspect a mail brick. How do I fix it? I tried using FSToolbox with no success. Should I format? I have bootmii and homebrew installed; is it ok to format with them? Do I need to reinstall the system menu? Oh yeah, I'm running system menu 4.3U (which is strange because I don't remember updating to it.)

I tried formatting, but it didn't solve the issue and now I can't reach the homebrew channel. How do I reinstall homebrew?

Follow this guide to install the homebrew channel here [forum.wiibrew.org]. So can you access to the system menu.

I got homebrew reinstalled. I can access the System Menu for a few seconds before freezing, but I can access it in Maintenance Mode. Right now I'm trying to use betwiin to dump a donor nand file, but I'm getting a syntax error when I run betwiin.py. I'm not sure where the syntax error occurs though.

I'm not sure I got right info but give it a try. First, take your GC controller and press the D pad at the same time right after you turn on your wii which is little bit harder but you will be able to do it. That will take you to the rescue menu. This is the time to insert the normal disc and install fresh system menu. Good luck and please reply if you got any happen.

Yeah, try re-installing system menu with DOP- Mii. Also try getting IOS80 in the US version. Couldn't find that on the wiki, maybe someone else knows.

But @mangodingo can't access to the system menu because it's froze.

I thought maintenance mode worked.

Yeah, that should work. I couldn't thought that.

Actually, don't do IOS80. It's probably not nessacary (darn that word hard to spell :D).
