    Hey guys,
    I softmodded my Wii back in August, and I did install the latest system update recently, so I'm guessing I'm on 4.2.

    I noticed my Wii backups still play fine after the update, the Homebrew Channel and my emulators and such all are still working too.

    What isn't working are Gamecube compilation discs -- using Wii Backup Launcher or Gecko, the discs simply cause the Wii to reboot.

    Are there files I need to update to get the GC backups working again? Any help would be appreciated in advance.

    Go to my 4.2 softmod guide in my sig and follow the Gamecube section. This will install a custom MIOS for gamecube backups to work.

    I am looking for hte gamecube section in your guide but cannot find it. CAn you give me a hint on how far down it is.

    Also will this play from the softmod launchers, name a good one if you can) or does it just replace the ios for the hard mod to work again.

    This is from larrys 4.1 softmod guide that i found.


    Game Cube Support:

    WARNING: I DON'T KNOW IF cMIOS IS COMPATIBLE WITH LU64, LEH250 OR LAH113 AND ABOVE SYSTEMS. IF ANYONE KNOWS FOR SURE LET ME KNOW AND I WILL REMOVE THIS WARNING.

    1) Launch the Homebrew Channel via the Wii channel menu. Select the cMIOS Installer in the Homebrew Channel list. This will start the installer. You need to press A to accept that you have read the disclaimer.

    You have 2 options on how to install the cMIOS files (you do not need to do both options!)...

    WAD Installation: Google RVL-mios-v8.wad and download it. Then place it in the root of the SD Card. Then chose WAD Instillation option.

    Network Installation: At the instillation option screen press right 1 time on the D-pad of the Wiimote. This will download the files via WiFi.

    After you have selected the option you want and installed the cMIOS your Wii should reboot to the Wii Channel menu.
