Complete List of IOS Files available for Nintendo Wii

Firstly I would like to say thank you to Ithian over at Wiihacks for this list, I think it is well worth sharing.

Below you will find a list of all current IOS Files available for the Nintendo Wii along with a description of the function they perform. If you know of any errors or updates that I need to know about please post them below and I will update the list accordingly.

Also remember to NEVER delete an IOS file under 200, doing so could brick your Nintendo Wii making it a very expensive paper weight.

If you want to check what IOS files are installed on your Nintendo Wii you can use sysCheck.

Check what IOS Files are installed on your Nintendo Wii

When softmodding your Nintendo Wii it is always handy to know what IOS Files you have installed. With the help of sysCheck you can now find out very easily.

sysCheck also checks the IOS files for the following:

IOS StubFake signature (aka Trucha Bug)ES_DiVerify (aka ES_Identify)Flash AccessNAND AccessBoot2 AccessUSB 2.0

Video of sysCheck in action:

How to use sysCheck:

Download sysCheck from – HERE.Extract and copy the sysCheck folder to the “apps” folder on your SD Card.You now need to load the Homebrew Channel and select sysCheck.Once sysCheck has loaded you will see a message saying “This IOS will be tested (Please select):” leave it on “All” and press [A].Once finished scanning you can view the results on screen but you will also have the results saved on your SD Card as the following file: sd:/sysCheck.csv. You can open this file using something like MS Excel or Notepad.

I hope this helps a few people out. As always if you have any questions or comments please post them below.
