I'm on menu 4.2U. Because I have been messing with my IOSs (for USB loading), My copy of Wii Sports Resort wants me to update to 4.2U again. While I can load it from USB Loader GX, my family won't do that. Is there any way I can block the update without having to load it through GeckoOS or something? I also want to keep BootMii, so I don't want to install Priiloader.
Any suggestions?

installing priiloader doesnt delete bootmii
Really? I was under the impression that it was a boot2 replacement, and thus would overwrite BootMii. I'll try, and if not, no harm done; I can reinstall BootMii. Thanks!

EDIT- The WiiBrew page says to not install it if you have modified IOSs. Is this true, or just an anti-piracy thing?

Priiloader comes right after Bootmii if you have your sd card in,it goes Bootmii/boot2->Priiliader->System Menu

that probably means modified System menu IOS,as long as you haven't modified the SM IOS,you should be safe,especially since you have Bootmii

You're an idiot. Go away. Seriously. Be rude to people who are trying to help you but all you can do is be snotty because you don't understand. Ask AOL for help on hacking your wii.

If you were in front of me right now I'd slug you in the face for being an asshole.


OTT much

Wii Sports Resort do not have any 4.2 update, you should be secure to update it, just make a NAND backup just incase and update.

And @Salax:
Go ahead and install Preloader, it shouldn't be a problem. Priiloader 0.3b just came out today, so you should install that, and make sure to get the correct hacks for your system menu version here (place them on the root of your SD card in a text file called "hacks.ini").

    I just recently picked up a n64 from a garage sell, and looking to mod it and add a HDMI port to it. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3548173115...044&customid=4f3038da73b61afddf7e5e90f4153856
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'd like to find a power strip and HDMI selector built in 1 unit, so I can select which game system I want, and will switch to that hdmi, and power on that plug/power supply only, so don't have all game systems powered all the time, but can't find anything like. May just have to make something myself.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Maybe start a kick starter page and sell them, yea right. Big N would prob C&D me, not anything Big N related, but just because that's what they do nowdays. Then come out with they own in a year or so.

    @Xdqwerty, Nice. Which operating system are you installing?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, windows 10 and some linux distro like linux mint
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    dualbooth
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Yeah, I'd recommend having another OS just in-case you want to play games.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least Linux doesn't contain spyware than what Windows has.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, cuz of lag?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No. Whenever you use the internet on Windows, Microsoft collects personal data and installs bloatware that isn't necessarily needed, such as Edge.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Speaking of which
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ,
    I recall @impeeza mentioned some trick about not having bloatware when installing windows where you set up your country to "world" or smh like that

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Yes, you can debloat the operating system, but in some cases for me it just reinstalls them.

    @SylverReZ,
    I also recall my brother downloded a "non bloated" version of windows 11 on his pc

  • impeeza @ impeeza:
    @Xdqwerty yes, when you are installing Windows on the first steps you are asked for your current location, you MUST to select «international» so no bloatware is installed, because the bloatware is location based. if this night I have some time I will setup a VM and take screenshots.
