Note this wouldn't work with originals, you can try but it wouldn't work.


Things Needed
-ImgBurn
-A Backup of Your Choice


You need to be careful with this because many factors can cause a bad backup. For example, Scratchs on the DVD, Quality of the DVD-R and the speed it was burnt. if cared your DVDs, Burnt them at low speeds on Verbatim DVD-R or any other high quality DVD-R (not +R) then you shouldn't get a bad dump. Before you start insert the DVD into your DVD Drive.


1) Open Up ImgBurn and Select 'Create Image file from disc'







2) Make sure the source is where you inserted the DVD. The Label should show the name of the game.







3) Under Destination, Browse for the place you would like to save the .iso and name it whatever you like.







4) Press the button below to start Reading the disc.







5) ImgBurn should now begin reading the disc. Allow it to finish with no errors or intervention. You should get a pop-up saying Operation Successful.







OPTIONAL
You could try dragging the iso onto IOSPatcher and opening it with WiiScrubber to see if they both are able to read the iso. ]]> ShadowSonic2 http://www.wiihacks.com/showthread.php?t=27485 http://www.wiihacks.com/showthread.php?t=27044&goto=newpost Mon, 26 Oct 2009 12:49:58 GMT Some people may notice getting a black screen when trying to run certain games. The reason this happens is because the game is trying to load an IOS not available on your console. To Solve the problem you will need to install the IOS via Wad Manager.


Things Needed
IOS Patcher
WiiScrubber v1.4
WAD Manager v1.4 or v1.5
A Wii ISO (One that doesn't have its update partition removed)


Both IOS Patcher and Wii Scrubber can be downloaded [Only Registered Users Can See Links. Click Here To Register]

Before you start unzip the downloaded files

Check to see if the game is alread added to tealc's list:
[Only Registered Users Can See Links. Click Here To Register]

If the game is on the list. Remember or write down the IOS it needs and continue from step 2 of this tutorial.


STEP 1 - Find Out What IOS A Game Needs

Drag the .iso file onto IOSPatcher. A screen telling you what IOS the game needs should come up. Remember it or Write It Down.








Step 2 - Extract the Required IOS

Next Run WiiScrubber.exe

WiiScrubber should open. Press Load ISO.







Browse for and open the same .iso that was dragged onto IOSPatcher







Next Expand the update partition. This is the Partiton that says Partition: 0 - Update.








Next expand the part that's called _sys







Next Scroll down until you find the same IOS number that was in IOSPatcher in this case, its IOS55. Right click the IOS file and select Extract. Save this into the WAD folder on the root of your sd card.








STEP 3 - Installing the IOS

1)With your sd card inside your wii, load homebrew channel then load Wad Manager. I'd recommend using WAD manager v1.4 or v1.5

2)If you're asked to select an IOS for install select IOS249 then install the .wad file you got from WiiScrubber.

The Game should now run fine. ]]> ShadowSonic2 http://www.wiihacks.com/showthread.php?t=27044
