So what happens is, i can get all the way to the menu screen (play/update/about/news) and when i press play, it goes black, then goes back to the menu screen.
I did some research and people have said the game wasn't reading the disk fast enough. The solution someone said was to replace the boot.elf file and/or download the gecko launcher (or something like that).
The gecko file was placed into the "codes" folder, but the same thing happens. i literally am lost, we've tried everything. (except the whole "replace the boot file with the gecko launcher", not sure how that is done or if they said that correctly.

NOTE: I made sure i had the right kind of sd card (2GB and not HDSD). I have the right kind of wii and copy of brawl. I have no custom maps.

Edit: Earlier today, we got it to work (FINALLY) BUT once we turned it off to take a break, it wouldn't work again. No matter how many times we restarted, tried again, etc.
