this means you cant un-brick it with a disc, as it won't read one.
Ok tnx. But how then do you full brick it? What can go so wrong so it gets fully bricked? I donīt want it bricked of course but is a bit curious.

The way to fully brick is unknown but it happens as well from playing out of region games from what I remember Super Paper Mario NTSC would fully brick a PAL Wii. There was another time when trying to fix a semibrick it ended up fully bricks, also my Miidia project ended up brinking a Wii during the Channel install. You may want to check out bushings blog UnbrickMii for a little more in depth details

I had responded in your other thread as well asking what Modchip you had inside your Wii. As for best software to use for burning this ISO I would suggest using ImgBurn it is free and does a great job.

you can do that just by updating via the Wii updates in Wii Connect no reason to use the image if you dont have to.
