How to Soft-mod your 4.3u Wii Tutorial Step 2- Back-up Nand and Installing Priiloader

This is the 2nd step to Soft-modding your Wii which covers backing up your Wii's nand and installing priiloader for extra protection against un-wanted disk and online updates. Priiloader also allows you to load your back-up files from your SD card in case of a problem down the road. All instructions are in the video, feel free to pause at any time to catch up. the files needed for this step are below:

Priiloader:

Hacks_hash:
http://download884.mediafire.com/0z7apps6v3og/7ls51h5dky73ejd/hacks_hash.zip

Be sure to put the hacks_hash.ini file in the Priiloader folder with the "boot.dol" file AND on the root of the SD card so Priiloader has no trouble finding it when it comes time to apply system menu hacks.

THIS WAS DONE ON SYSTEM MENU 4.3U! If you are performing these steps on any version lower than 4.3U, I can't promise you success. You can update to 4.3U before you proceed.

It is also a good idea to TURN OFF the Wii Connect 24 feature in the Wii settings menu after this is complete as an extra precaution to prevent any future work-arounds from Nintendo. This feature has nothing to do with online gaming or internet usage.

Remember: When you start using instructions from one source, continue using from that source. Mixing instructions from different tutorials can cause huge problems. I can't assume you followed the correct steps when I give you directions, each of my videos are based on the video I created before it and all videos were created using the same Wii console without any changes during the recording.

i look at the priiloader file so you just copy the folder that says priiloader to my sd card?

[TheWiickedness]

@Deon016

Yes, just make sure the folder structure is:

SDcard/apps/Priiloader/boot.do­l

Sometimes you will download new apps and the ".dol" file has to be changed to "boot.dol". Sometimes they will be perfect and ready to copy.

where do i save my backup to

[TheWiickedness]

@FLYBOiiSENONDECK

You'll save the back-up to your SD card then to your computer somewhere, doesn't matter where. Put the hacks file on the root of your card, and in the priiloader folder along side the boot.dol file.

I have a question. What do I do if the backup thing says I need 600 MB but I only have 480 MB on my SD card.

[TheWiickedness]

@SaberTheShadowWolf

You will need to use a larger card to do your back-up, it doesn't have to be the same card as the one you did the hack on.

EVERYONE you dont actually need a gamecube controller, when in bootmii!, just press the power but once to switch to the next option, then the reset button to select it, thumbs up so everyone knows!!

[im515000]

Now when I load prilloader it does not show up on HBC like yours does on the video. Do you have a idea why

Thanks

[n00bkiller247]

[uberl33tn00b1]

Please reply, I really need help. I semi bricked my wii towards I can only play games that don't require a patcher to hack with. For instance, I can play Call of Duty, MWR, and W@W, but I can't play Black Ops and MW3 because they're harder to hack. Anyone help please?!?!
