Alright, so I have riivolution v1.05 with a 4.3U system, I installed the channel and can run it from homebrew as well. I put all the files in the correct places, then ran Riivolution. My card is a 4GB SDHC which is why I am using the riivolution method but the problem I seem to be having is interesting and I haven't seen any information on this so I'll explain it as best as I can. By the way, my wii is not a launch day wii, it's a black one but it still has backwards compatability if that's important.

When I run Riivolution It will boot up normally and I can choose which mods to enable or disable via the mod launcher which was included in the installer off of the project m website. Now when I hit launch, no matter what is enabled or disabled if I leave my wiimote on it will desync then the screen will freeze and I have to hard boot my system by holding the powerbutton, however when I remove the batteries right after hitting launch, it continues to run normally as if nothing is wrong, then when I attempt to sync my wiimote or even just hit a button, the screen freezes like before and I must hard boot. Now here's the interesting part, I had one instance when loading brawl- where the wiimote actually worked up until I tried to start a training match. The announcer said "Ready" Then "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" non-stop annoying buzzing sound which happens whenever the screen freezes while sound is playing.

I have tried removing all but the riivolution files, and running with no XML files at all, wiimote causes crashing.

I tried using riivolution to run Sin and punishment: Star successor as well as Shiren the Wanderer, those games both work like a charm.

I tried deleting all of my Replays, photos and custom stages, that did not work.

All I want to do is play project M and Brawl- and also use a dry bowser texture that I got from brawl vault, maybe I'll even add some fun texture and music packs later on, but for now I just want to get this up and running, is anyone able to help me?

I don't have experience with Brawl-, but I had similar problems with Riivolution and loading Project: M. I decided to download the hackless Wii zip file (it works even though the Wii is softmodded) and it works like a charm. I believe if your wii is softmodded, it can read 4gb cards. If I were you, I would try the hackless method for Project: M. It should work then, and you can use textures by placing them in the fighter folders.
