So can I just burn a regular swiss .iso to a full sized dvd blank for my wii? Or do I have to do something first to the iso?

I use a homebrew app (forget name) that boots backup GameCube discs.
Thanks

So I popped in the disc I used for my gamecube to boot swiss [mini dvd-r] since I can't find any blank full size dvds at my house. It boots with neoGamma. And I have only tried it once so far but it worked to enable progressive [once again, force 480p = black screen. I held B until it asked to enabl...

Except I want to boot off the sd card. (sd gecko)

Oh, yeah I use Wii swiss booter. Also I boot hbc straight from bootmii screen. So can you use any DVD blanks for wii? I know the GameCube is particular about discs. Also what about dios mios lite? The first time I tried to install it it didn't work but I think it might now that I've installed a cust...

So I got my wii component cable in the mail today. I used swiss to boot Super Mario sunshine, and I held B and selected progressive. It worked great. But I came back later and now when I select progressive, the screen goes weird colors and a fifth of the bottom of the picture is on the top, and it's...

I finally got the cord. So when I force 480p on Super Mario Sunshine, I get a black screen. but when I leave it on Auto, it runs fine. I /think/ it's in 480p mode.. but how can I be sure? without going back to the old cord, that is. it's a pain to get to the connectors on the back of my TV.

I use http://wiibrew.org/wiki/BootMii_Configuration_Editor

My Wii boots to HBC by default and I use devolution, after the initial nightmare of verifying 100+ discs, it works quite well

Thanks I'll try that when my cord gets here.

Thank you for confirming.. so I plan on booting directly into hbc to not need a wimote on hand.

Would I set the video mode in hbc to enable progressive? Then force 480p in Swiss? Or will I need to boot into Wii to enable 480p then run hbc then swiss loader?

thanks. I ended up going with swiss on wii, just because I could not get the DIOS-MOIS method to work. I had to install a cIOS and stuff before I could install a MIOS. Then Swiss Booter. So I boot the homebrew channel, then I boot swiss loader, then it loads swiss, I select my ISO and it boots the g...

The mediafire links seem to be dead.. does anyone have a link?

Did you make a NAND back-up. Be careful with what you do as boot2 cannot recover from most brick situations.

Yes I did a NAND backup and backed it up on my laptop and external disk as well as sd card.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

I finally installed bootmii [to boot2] and the homebrew channel. What I want to do next is be able to play GameCube ISOs from my 8GB SDHC card. I downloaded DIOS-MIOS but I have no idea what to do with the .wad file. when I press home in homebrew channel, it says: 1.0.8 IOS38 v14.25 in the top right...

Edit: Just wanted to say, I stumbled upon an easy solution: install bootmii, and install the files to SD card. Whenever you boot with it in, it will boot bootmii first, and you can use a GC controller to boot homebrew channel, then into Swiss loader, and therefore not need a Wiimote! But I'd recomme...

the best solution is bootmii priiloader is for those who are unable to install bootmii also might want to consider not to ever upgrade your menu and turn wiiconnect off should I just disconnect my wifi? or is there a setting to just disable updates? I clicked WiiConnect24, and it said I have to agr...

I think he just wants it to be a gamecube that has the option for a cheap and available component cable Exactly! But I have decided to only sell 1 on ebay, and I'll keep the other one JIC. :P purchased one on ebay for $3 today. And also USA shipping, so I hope to get it this week. ^_^ I can't wait ...

I just picked up a Wii at a flea market, with 2 wiimotes, av cable, power cable, and a bar. The only reason I got it was for the progressive scan ability, since I already have a modded gamecube. So my initial thought, I would sell both wiimotes on ebay. So I turned it on and I realized the gamecube ...

Got it working. But each time I boot I have to manually select it from slot B. There's no way to do it any easier is there?

Good news, as a lost resort I tried burning from a laptop instead of my desktop.
What do you know? It boots at 65ohms!

My bro is putting it back together now. The one thing tho, it said there was no sd gecko present.
Does it need to be in slot A?

First, it was already at 180 ohms. so I put the pot down to [roughly] 70, it didn't work. then I tried 55, and then about 30. all of them didn't work. I tried to clean the lens with a qtip and water, because I couldn't find any rubbing alcohol, and I dried it of course with the other end. it reads m...

ImgBurn shows the options for burning at 2x but when i started to burn the disc it changed the speed to 4x. I did read the log. It said successfully set speed to 2x. I said log. But actually is this info. http://i.imgur.com/yZ1f4wz.jpg [/quote] ok: https://doc-0o-24-docs.googleusercontent.com/docs/...

Try ImgBurn and look the log for supported writing speeds too. I use those mini-DVDs and they only started to work when i downgraded my DVD burner firmware to the first version.

Oh like with a Q-tip (and rubbing alcohol? I'll try that before I take it apart.

@siphoned, I appreciate it.. I'm pretty positive the ones I have are CMC MAG AF1. Anyway, I am going to tweak the pot. But not right now, because I have to get up early tomorrow. So maybe tomorrow I'll be able to do it, and hopefully then my discs will boot.

If it changes from red to orange, means the chip is doing it's job. I would try a backup of a normal game if you suspect media is the problem. What did you use to create the bootable swiss disc? I have had problems in the past but had success following infact's guide: http://www.gc-forever.com/foru...

Wasn't there an issue with the ntsc iso downloaded from google.code? Is that the one your using? Yes in fact I did indeed use the NTSC from the 7z archive on google code. :-S So what should I do? burn the PAL version and try it? If there was an issue with the image layout it wouldn't have said &quo...
