what does freezing mean? - Wiihacks

Mikchek · 07-13-2008, 11:20 AM

I have burned several images that are recognized at the game channel in the menu...but when I click on it and click start...at various points before I actually get to play the game it will freeze on me....is this a bad image? bad mediums (Verbatim) or something else?

a few games that this has happened on are:

wii fit (black screen after press start)
zelda (black screen after press start)
NBA Live (freezes on team screen)

its either your media, use verbatim and it also can be your burn sppeds use 4x burn speeds and 2.4x for dual layer

I do use verbatim right now...- have tried burning at 1x and got the same problems but I think the last one burned at 4x...should u close other programs that pull resources when burning? If I try again should I try at 1x or 2x? I don't even know if IMGBurn has a 2x setting

yeah i would recommand closing everything if you computer is slow, try 4x for a singale layer it should work with no problem.

I wouldn't call a 2.0 Ghz Intel Core 2 with a GB of RAM slow but hey I will try anything....

also i have been getting the can not read disc error in the middle of games lately....is that from the same thing?

if you getting DRE the it means that your laser is either durity or is dieing. i would recommand opening it up and using rubbing alcholo to clean the lense

ok what are the chances of it dying? is it more than likley dirty?

depends on how old the wii is and how its been used also depends on what media you feed the media, if you used crappy media the its a laser issue, but if you used good media then it could just be dirty

Well I don't know what is considered bad media...I used to use memorex but I really didn't burn too many games...I will try to clean the lens and see what happens
