    Hi Warzone

    Where did you source your Cyclowiz from? I will probably be buying a mod-chip but intend to buy a Wiikey as the Cyclowiz has shown a number of issues already.

    Here is a good guide on how to open your Wii without purchasing a tri-wing screwdriver, I intend to use the melted pen screwdriver!
    http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/18/mini-how-to-make-a-tool-to-breach-nintendos-security-screws/

    And here is a source which details that some backed up games won't run with Cyclowiz:

    This site has instructions on taking the Wii apart (in the Guides section):

    you need a tri wing screw driver, I have one you can borrow if you like.

    Unfortuatly it the cyclowiz that has problems with pal games with 8 PAL games not working correctly.

    Rayman
    COD3
    Spongebob
    Dont work at all

    warioware
    supermonkey ball
    tony hawk have sound problems that make it sound really terrible.

    The wiikey hasnt been released so we dont know of any compatibilty problems.

    The cyclowiz is a breese to install, however, i would do a wired install as there are problems with the chip and you may want to just install a wiinja or wiip in the future.
