How to: Access the Topup TV Engineers Menu on your Box
After purchasing a Topup TV Digital Recorder about 9 months ago, I have been researching my box a little and found out the Hard Drive is simply a normal Maxtor Hard Drive which you can find in most computers.
The standard drive in the box was a 160gb drive so this got removed pretty quick and I replaced it with a 250gb Maxtor Hard Drive.
I have also discovered a Secret Engineers Menu. I take it this will be the same for all Topup TV boxes.
How to: Softmod your 4.3 Nintendo Wii
Softmodding your Nintendo Wii is one of the best things you can do to it and will give it a whole new lease of life.
Once you have Softmodded your Wii you can load games from a USB Hard Drive, Play Backup Game Discs and install hundreds of other Homebrew Applications.
The big advantages of loading your games from a USB Hard Drive include faster loading times, no scratched discs and the fact all your games are in one place so you don’t have to keep getting up to change discs.
This guide will guide you through all the steps including Installing the Homebrew Channel, Backing up your Wii’s NAND and Installing Priiloader (for brick protection).
How to: Bypass Nintendo Wii Parental Controls
It is surprising how many people I see around the internet who have forgotten the pin code for the Nintendo Wii’s Parental Controls.
It also seems to be quite common with people buying second hand Wii’s and never being given the pin code. Well don’t panic all is not lost, you have two options that should help.
Option one is to phone Nintendo using the number displayed on screen, the problem with this method is if you don’t know that answer to the security question they probably won’t help you.
Option two is to use a new tool I have found which will instantly generate an unlock code for you to type in. This code would be the same code you get if you phone up Nintendo.
I am sure you have all worked out that the second option is better, so let me tell you how to do it.
