cIOS |
{% include toc title="Table of Contents" %}
While cIOS has largely been supplanted by AHBPROT, which gives complete hardware access, it still has useful applications. For example, this enables the functionality of USB loaders like USB Loader GX and WiiFlow, alongside other pieces of homebrew like SaveGame Manager GX. You can skip this process if you want, but generally it extends your Wii with little to no downsides.
If you have a Wii mini, install this cIOS instead. Attempting to install any other cIOS on a Wii mini won't work. {: .notice--warning}
Requirements
- A Wii
- An SD card or USB drive
- d2x cIOS Installer
Ensure that if you are using an SD card, the lock switch is in the unlocked position, otherwise you will not be able to select the correct options in the installer. {: .notice--warning}
Instructions
Section I - Downloading
If your Wii has an Internet connection, you may skip this section. {: .notice--warning}

in the same folder as the NUS Downloader.
Open the folder and navigate through them until you locate the four WAD files you downloaded.- You can now use homebrew such as USB Loader GX and WiiFlow.
