I've had mine modded since Tuesday with a wiinja. Used Imgburn with a pioneer 110d and Ritek DVD-r. I used a a DIL socket to allow easy removal of the chip if wanted.
Works fine here thank you. No pics I'm afraid.

Hi,

Same here, I've installed Wiinja on PAL Wii (France) successfuly on tuesday.
I had trouble at start with backup burnt on DVD+R (my DVD burner doesnt support boot type change)
But it works perfectly with DVD-R burnt with ImgBurn 4x

Rampa

Wiinja installed and working fine. Burn on Ridisk printable using pioneer111D and imgburn.

Sounds like Pinoeer + Ritek + Imgburn is a good combination.

Seems I'm speaking too soon. Myself, and others are receiving DREs. Seems we are back to the GC days. I've found you can eject and reinsert the disc and continue on some games (red steel, Wario).

I've burned many GC games on Ritek G04s and Taiyo Yuden 8x DVD-R discs and never had a DRE. These were all burned with NeroLinux at 2X on an NEC-3520A.. I don't yet have my Wii modchip.. so I can't speak to any success there.. hopefully next week.

What speed are you guys burning at that are getting DREs?

4X
Should be ok. On to G05 dye disk. I might try verbatum, anybody had luck with that?

Got my Wiinja today (I'm in the US). I had my Wii already wired with a socket so dropping the Wiinja in was no problem. Works like a champ. Backups burned on HP DVD+R on a Pioneer 111D are working at the rate of about 80% (approx 4 out of 5 worked). I attribute this ratio to media/burning. I'll try a re-burn on those backups with different media and see what happens.

The chip is not glamourous, but it does work. I have only tried Wii backups at this point. Don't know about GC backups/imports/GCOS.

Can anyone tell me if you can burn wii iso's from a pioneer 107D using Nero?

I'm trying to go that direction when i saw it was an 8 pin socket chip... care to share which 8 pin DIP socket carrier you used... serial# for radio shack... havn't ordered mines yet so im not sure about its size... is it the same size as 8 pin 555 timer chips? thanks...

closest one ive seen is this... http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...entPage=family

that should fit the wiinja right... just makes it bulkier i guess...

were did everyone order from and did u get chip sent to uk
