WARNING: This guide is somewhat outdated due to the introduction of the D2C2 and D2E drive chipsets. If you bought your Wii in late April 2008 or later, it is recommended that you ask in the forums.

General

The Wii has had different drive chipsets since its launch. The best way to know which version your console has is to open it and look at the text written on the chipset itself.

Another way to know is using the serial number of the console. It's not 100% accurate and not yet complete, but gives a quick way to check your console's chipset.

Serial numbers

Glossary:

  • GC2 - DMS or GC2R - D2A: Chip compatible with 1st generation modchips
  • GC2R - D2B: Chip compatible with 2nd generation modchip
  • GC2 - D2B: Chip compatible with 2nd generation modchip and with 1st generation modchips (if modification on 3 chip's legs missing)
  • GC2 - D2C: Chip compatible with 2nd generation modchip
  • GC2 - D1A: Chip compatible with 2nd generation modchip

Europe

You can insert into table cells your Wii serial number. At least 6 digits are appreciated!

Notes

For European models it seems the D2B chip was introduced somewhere between LEH 1088XXXX and LEH 1097XXXX.

If your serial is below LEH 1088XXXX there is a 98% chance you don't have the D2B chip.

I your serial is between LEH 1088XXXX and LEH 1097XXXX the chance you have the D2B chip is about 50%.

If your serial is above LEH 1097XXXX there is a 98% chance you have the D2B chip.

GC2 - D2C is sold in France (and probably the rest of Europe) since 29-may-2007
