USB Gecko Ripper 1.2 beta
-------------------------

Added:

Compatible with Drivekey / Solderless Mods, Wiikey 2 etc.
Added vista/ vista 64 compatibility, before had problem with save dialog box now working, which only worked on xp.

Instructions:
------------

Important: Make sure USB Gecko is inserted in Slot B memory card slot and is connected before following the instructions below.

1. Burn the geckorip2.iso file for your region of console, which is the 'wii_REGION' folder of the archive with imgburn (http://www.imgburn.com) or clonecd. 4x or 8x speed speed on verbatim DVD-R seem to be best for compatibility.

2. Load the DVD on the Wii, it will detect as a Gamecube DVD. Once the DVD has loaded it will prompt for command from PC.

3. Open the PC application called geckoextract.exe which is also attached in the archive.

4. Click the extract button, the game will now rip. A progress bar will show you the status of the progress on the geckoextract.exe program.

Additional Info:
---------------

The ripper is far more stable than before, but is only reading 10 sectors at a time now 10 x 2048 bytes packets which seems to be the limit the wii drive reads before doing any buffering. Rip speeds will be slower because of this.

PC app is now coded in c# to add better vista and 64bit support, the latest vista and 64 bit drivers can be found here

If the PC application doesn't run, you will need to install .net framework below

The ISO image is set to USA region, so make sure modchip is set to allow region free if you have a PAL or Jap console. This is default on most chips.

Thanks

Thanks to the DriveKey and Wasabi Team for supplying samples!
