This is a quick tutorial I made to get the Backup Loader working properly on your Wii.

Step 1.

Install the CIOS36_rev5-64-v1042.wad

Step 2.

Install the DVDX .dol into your apps and setup via Homebrew Channel

- Click advanced and set it to 249

Step 3.

Create a folder on your SD card in the apps folder and name it Wii Loader (Or whatever else you want) and put dvd-back.dol in there.

Step 4. Make sure that "backup-creator.exe" , "common-key" and what .iso you are wanting to backup is in the same folder.

- Drag the ISO over the "backup-creator.exe" This will create a new iso called partition.iso

Burn with IMGBurn

Step 5.
Go to Homebrew Channel on the Wii and load the Wii Loader backup-dvd.dol file you did earlier and launch.

It will ask to insert a Wii disc. Insert your backup. Your backup should load.

This has all the tools necassary to start from scratch (Twilight hack, homebrew channel, DVDX, and Wii Backup Loader).


If you have any questions feel free to reply here or IM me on AIM (JustinWoodypond1)

Is this possible regardless of current system version(At least before the 22nd)?

I haven't tried it on anything below 3.3U. But it works perfect on that.

Ive the same problem
would be really pleased if someone has the answer to that

HEY GUYS I GOT IT ^^
you just have to right-click the open with and searching the backup-creator.exe file and starting it likes this it worked perfectly with me

This is for people without modchips.

ok starting at step 4 with version 4.2 when i make the partition iso do I copy that to disk and or the game iso also I am not finding the back loader with homebrew
