Re: Help! 4.0u Wii banner-bricked from (bad?) WAD install - 16 years ago
The D2E Wii's have that epoxy nonsense... can't get it in there sadly. I'll report back when the Drivekey arrives.by chrisemersonnc - FixMii

Well on my original Wii the Wii-Clip V3 *DID* boot burnt discs yeah (including Wii-Clip flash/config disc). But that was a D2B Wii (which my wife tripped over the cord and permanently broke it). My current Wii is a D2E and I've swapped in the D2B's DVD drive + Wii-Clip V3 to try to boot burnt rescue discs (Unbricker ISOs, AnyTitleDeleter etc) until the DriveKey arrives. While I can&by chrisemersonnc - FixMii

Thanks SifJar - I have to admit I didn't know about the "legal" homebrew scene until recently - so yes all I've known about is WADs/cIOS stuff. 1.) Why do you say I don't have Twilight Hack? That's how I got HBC installed way back when. Sadly, my legit Zelda TP disc won't boot for me so I can't use it. 2.) And as I mentioned, I *DO* have a modchip (WiiKey for nby chrisemersonnc - FixMii

Help! 4.0u Wii banner-bricked from (bad?) WAD install - 16 years ago
Ok.... so I'm not proud of it but I banner-bricked my Wii by installing a NeoGamma (r7?) WAD via WadManager 1.5. I'm more addicted to installing stuff than using it - which is why I find myself with a bricked Wii - because I install first, research later :'(. I've learned my lesson but question now is - can I save my Wii or do I have to buy a new one. Here's my info fby chrisemersonnc - FixMii
