    You can just do a disk-to-disk copy. (Or Disk-to-ISO, then burn the created ISO. You would just use any burning software.)

    NO RawDump needed.

    I am new but am very good at following directions. There is a problem that is driving me crazy. I have the proper DVD Rom (LG)8164. I have the proper programs. Raw Dump and I am using Nero 8 to burn in the recorder. The problem is that I have done 7 separate dumps on 7 different games, both GC and WII. The file size I keep getting with the WII games is 4,589,824 KB and the size for the GC is 1,425,760 KB. This happens every time I RawDump. Can anyone please help me? I run an 2400 system with 2g of ram.

    Oh, sorry, when I burn these games and put them in the WII, the message is that the disc cannot be read. Thanks

    Dont use NERO use IMGBURN or ALCOHOL 120% I also had problems with Nero and make sure you are using decent media too and burn at a slower speed. These are the common faults of discs not being read IMO.

    There are no stupid questions. No, there was no instructions to install a mod chip before I could play these games. So I don't have a mod chip installed. And yes, this is the exact size of my dumps. So please tell me what the problem is. Thanks.

    yea a mod chip needs purchased/installed to play these games. You should rewind the forum and start from the begining to find out sites and reveiws on chips. Im gonna go with the wiikey. Furthermore i dont think ur recently burnt game is bad, u just need chip in wii to read it.

    OK, after reading some more, I realize that it matters what the serial number is and what type of chipset is in the console. I have a serial LU5473. Does this mean a certain MOD? Or do I have to open the unit and check the board physically?

I am the father of my sons site opening called nintendotech.com we would like to request some of you all to be moderators over there to help us , We will put you as a site supporter. I have an older DL LG 5185?? will that work ?? And can you dload the games on emule ?? At 60 bucks a pop , yikes ! plus my son is infamous for scratching disks.

    LUCKYROXI, I asked basicaly the same thing a few pages back and have had no feedback.

    Does it matter on the age of your Wii?
    How do you know what chipset to get?
    Is there a chart or something referencing serial numbers to mod chips?
