Need help with Wii Iso.
S
I downloaded this wii iso. I tried to use IMGburn, but it says error incorrect format. Im using Sony+r Dvd. Could anyone help? Thanks.

Did you extract the file? It's probably stores in an Archive of some sort. ZIP, RAR, 7ZIP, etc.
S
Yes, i did. It came out with r.00,r.01 etc. I used winrar and extracted from 0. Then i loaded the disc and imgburn. Went all the way to 99 %. Then incorrect format. Should i try another brand? Say verbatim? They are considered good..
I
Yes, Verbatims are GREAT! Also only use -R dvds for wii isos as +R dvds don't seem to work as well.
S
Well... Can anyone tell me what the incorrect format means? Also i just bought the Verbatim discs @ Newegg for 13$ for 50. Great deal if you ask me.
S
bump?

it depends on what you downloaded most the files out there are your standard dvd iso but i'm guessing you downloaded a file that is a .wii not a .iso.you need to convert it to an iso with Rawdump but make sure you run it through a brick blocker before using it if you didn't already know
S
so convert it with rawdump and i'll be good to go?
E
if its a .wii but i'm not too clued up on the whole thing because i make sure i download .iso's to save my self the hassle :D.but there is a crap load of tutorials out there just google "How to burn .wii files" and hey presto full guides.
S
Make sure the file is an .iso file but ofcourse after you extract, then yes you use imgburn other programs could work but i recommend this :).Did the file fully extract you didn't mention? if it did not look at the error console and it will tell you which archive of the X is curropted - Redownload that one. Maybe the Iso itself is curropted and make sure you use the correct launcher.I don't recommend burning on Dvd+r, use Dvd-r they work perfectly for me, and make sure you burn at speeds of 3 or 4.
S
Well, i downloaded an ISO. But, it still says incorrect format. Could it be the disc itself?
S
I don't understand.. not completely.Err what tells you Incorrect format..? maybe a screenshot will help show me the file and imageburn and the app telling you incorrect format (all in one screenshot will be awesome).
S
Ok, Thanks for your help Skynth.

I belive the problem is that your burner lens is not clean so take it out and clean it with an air cleaner
S
Do you mean my dvd drive/Burner drive?
S
Yea, Sorry I couldn't reply earlier, and I may have sounded a little angry but I wasn't my apologies.I believe its your burner, and since its from the source (cant mention) I do believe it's not corrupted and its a working iso.You might need to buy a new cd/dvd burner or try using another computer.I sound so cool! :)
S
Oh, i tried on about three different computers & it still doesn't work, and you didn't sounds rude.Thanks for your help.
E
it could just be corrupted try downloading it from a different source.what did it say the file extension was anyway?
S
Just says R.00, and incorrect format, while its an ISO.
E
your making no sense to me sorry can you post a screen shot of the actual file so i can see its file extension for my self then i may be able to help some more because .00 is not an iso format?
