1: Download this rar and unpack it onto root of an SD card.

2: Put the SD card in wii, go to Wii Options, than go to Data Management > channels > SD Card then you will get a message saying "Load /boot.dol?" select 'Yes' and CMDVDX34 will run, then pick "Downgrade IOS35", ignore the other 2 options and let it finish its job.

[Input from Zerosyko]: If you get Exception (DSI) has occurred, turn the wii off, go to the system menu, install the update from a game like Brawl or Mario Kart, and try again. I had to try probably a good 10 times.

3. Restart your Wii, take out the SD card, delete the boot.dol from the root and rename 'boot2.dol' to 'boot.dol'.

4. Put the SD card in wii, go to Wii Options, then go to Data Management > channels > SD Card then you will get a message saying "Load /boot.dol?" select 'Yes' and Wad Manager 1.4 will run, use this to install IOS35-64-v1040.wad, If it doesn't work, don't worry it is already installed.

5. Restart your wii and run wad manager 1.4 again using same method as step 4 except this time select IOS35 as the one it should use and install cIOS249 rev9.wad and HBC 1.0.1.wad.

6. Done! You now have HBC and cIOS249 so most of your HB should work. If you plan on staying on 4, format your sd card, download this rar and follow instructions in the readme, if you want to downgrade follow this guide and start at 2c.

Now go read and search!!!
