Hallo Guys!
Today my USB Gecko came. So i put it into the Slot A of my Wii and tried to start WiiRDGui. But it says that it can't connect to Gecko? What do i have to do? Sorry but i am new and want to try. But i didn't find any hints. :)
Greetings

Oh thanks. *lol*
I bought the Gecko from someone i don't know. :) But he forgot to send me the drivers CD. All i got is a Gecko + Cable. Do i get the drivers somewhere else?

Update
un zip to your hard drive and when asked point to them.
So. I did. U have to know. Normaly i am not that dumb with computers. :) But Vista is a bit new for me.
I did the installation. And i put the Gecko in the Slot B of the Wii. I started a game with Gecko OS (1.07b) and it still says can't connect. :( Do i use the wrong Gecko OS Version? I need the 1.06 F1?
Greetings and again big thx
your computer has to see the usbgecko as a USB serial converter, if it isn't you did something wrong.
My computer does see it as a USB serial converter. But i don't know if my Gecko OS shows a green thingie or whatever u call it. :)
I wasn't sure what is was, but I just checked, you have to see a green square in bottom left with a gecko in it
I'll try the 1.06 F1 and see what happens. :)
Greetings
but do you see a square at the bottom left?
when my USBGecko isn't connected it is grey and when it is connected it is green.
Yes i can see it and its green. So what can be the problem? I didn't change the version of Gecko OS so its still 1.07b. And WiiRD is also the latest 0.91 i think. But it still can't connect...

Don't use that, it has
so many bugs you won't believe. It's not the Gecko OS version, it's most likely the connection to and from your computer. Or heck, it could even be the USB Gecko itself.
did you try to connect with another computer?
Have you got this screen on your wii when you have booted the geckoOS from the hombre channel .

If so put your game in and start WiiRD. do not start WiiRD before you get to this screen.
No. I only have one computer. :) But if GeckoOs is green it can't be the USBGecko itself? So what u think i should do?
Greetings
edit: Yes i have this screen. And it also says can't connect. I try to restart my computer.
edit2: *lol* How stupid i am. I just needed to restart my computer. Now it works. So thanks for all your help.
