I give Up

[GolbatKing88]

No Matter what i try Project M will just not work. Even on a brand new Wii and a slightly used SD card. it just absolutely refuses to give me a break. the damn thing makes my Wii freeze even when it's not active. seriously even when the SD card is just resting in the slot it ****s up my Wii. (Again Brand new Wii, Rarely been used.)

So just **** it

 

[GolbatKing88]

can someone delete this, it's really embarrassing.

do you want help?

thanks for the offer, but I'm just gonna screw it up again somehow.

That's rather defeatist. Do you know anyone that has setup PM on their own wii? You can always just ask someone to help you get it going. PM players are always happy to help more people start playing their favourite game.

be specific with your problem. it took so long to get mine installed although the process is quite simple. I had issues with my SD cards

 

[HyperrCrow]

Everyone is here to help, so tell us what goes wrong at what specific time. Exactly when does it freeze? Also make sure the slider on your SD card isn't on lock.

 

[GolbatKing88]

alright, so I installed the data directly to my SD card (Demo installer version) and i deleted all the custom stages off my game, as well as made sure the card was unlocked. but as soon as I loaded it to the Gecko menu it froze, my wii mote just kept flashing the whole time and i couldn't do anything. after two tries i decided screw it, and played some regular brawl. but after a few matches it just froze at the stage select. (keep in mind this is while the card was still in the slot). it also made the this load high pitched noise when it happened.

it was the same thing that happened when my last console wore out, so i naturally assumed the worst. but I removed the SD card and it worked just fine afterwards.

Which demo installer are you using? When I installed P:M on my friends Wii I used the Hackless Full Set and everything runs smooth.
Just out of curiosity, what's your SD card like? 1-2GB?

 

[GolbatKing88]

let's see, i have a 2 GB SD card, and I think i used the same version you have. i selected the one at the top of the menu.

My SD card has tiny lines in the middle of each gold part.

 

[HyperrCrow]

Well yeah I used the Demo Installer as well, but when asked during the installation process I chose the Hackless Fullset. Do you mind telling me your SD cards current format? That could possibly be the issue

 

[BTmoney]

Try taping your SD card. That fixed it for me. My issue was slightly different for me because although the SD card was unlocked (and I could install/put files on it), my Wii was reading it as if it had write protection still and this caused the game to freeze whenever a match started.

I tape all the SD cards I have now and that's the only way they work in my Wii.
If you aren't missing the piece, then just slide it to unlock then tape it.

Just look at the taping step, ignore everything else. Try one or two layers of tape

You have to take out the SD card to play normal Brawl without it freezing, that's normal.

Try turning off your Wiimote once you're inside Brawl. Go through the whole hackless process with the Gamecube controller only. Gecko sometimes has issues with newer Wiimotes.

Well damn.. Nintendo screwed up with that one. Do you have a Classic Controller by any chance? That's worked for some people.

Try to load Gecko with the Classic Control and before you launch the disc in Gecko make sure the Config options are all right

I finally got it to work, thanks for the help.
