cIOS

{% include toc title="Inhalt" %}

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, use this guide for cIOS instead. Attempting to install other cIOS on a Wii mini will not work. {: .notice--warning}

Anforderungen

• 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}

Anleitung

Section I - Downloading

If your Wii has an Internet connection, you may skip this section.
However, If you encounter any errors like net_init failed, net_gethostbyname failed:, or any other issues during the downloading stage this will allow the Wii to skip the downloading step. {: .notice--warning}

If you are not on Windows, you may download & run this script, and it will download the WAD files for you. {: .notice--info}

1. Power off your console.
2. Insert your SD card or USB drive into your computer.

10. Open the titles folder and navigate through them until you locate the four WAD files you downloaded.
11. Place each WAD file on the root of your SD card or USB drive.
