How to install/use wad manager?

I'm currently struggling with wiikey fusion and a problem about getting a black screen. I've read some threads and understood that I now have to install a proper IOS for my game. I found a good thread about using NUSD, but

how do I get the wad-file to my Wii?

With the use of WAD Manager.
Just start teh application via the Homebrew Channel, and install the IOS.

What is the Homebrew Channel and how do I install it? The instructions what I found seemed very difficult.

Thanks.

Follow this guide by mauifrog.
It doesn't install the Homebrew Channel, but still makes you able to update your IOSes as hardmod user.

Is it possible to update IOS or system (to 4.1) with a dvd? Can I update from the game disc, when I keep getting a black screen even with an aunthentic game (GH: Metallica)?

I have 2 SD-cards, 4gb and 2gb mini-sd with an adapter, but Wii doesn't seem to recognize any of them. And the sd-card reader which came with the wiikey fusion only reads WBFS as far as I know, so I can't get IOS and wadmanager files there..

Please help, I'm so frustrated. I just want to play GH :)

Updating via a game is not recommended (I do not know which firmware GH: Metallica contains, if it's 4.1 then it will not cause any harm).

It would be possible with the use of a USB device and a back-up disc...but I do not know if there is a guide for that, and explaining it here is not done in 2 seconds...

EDIT:
GH: Metallica contains 3.1. Installing this update will not cause any trouble.

So how is it done via game?

Insert the game, and it will ask if you want to update.

Hahah. So that's why it doesn't ask because we have 3.1E already. We just restored the wii system to factory defaults, but I can't understand why the real game won't work. NBA Live 08 works fine, but GH: Metallica gives the black screen. If we just take the modchip out, should it work?

Thanks for your help, TBA.

I do not know if that will fix your issue. I don't recommend to take your modchip out, 'cause there is only chance of damaging something inside your Wii.
