when i first turn on the wii and press A to get past th health and safety, or pretty much any time i return to the menu, it takres forever for anything to show up...just a black screen. and you know how when you first start a game its not instant its a black screen but not for very long, that took like 80 seconds. does anyone know what i sohuld do, i cant put it on the stand cause when you open the flaps it doesnt fit.

Is that an exaggeration? If not then I wouldn't have a clue to the problem. If you are exagerating, the Wii does usually take a few seconds to get back to the menu.

I usually have about a 3 or 4 second wait then it shows the Wii menu loading up (you know the channels kinda pulse on the screen from the left to the right). If it's taking more than 10 seconds then I would consider getting it checked, or atleast call Nintendo.

The number of Channels is probably the reason it is taking longer to start up. Just like Windows, it is fast until you start loading programs into it. :D

What are you talking about when you open the flaps it doesn't fit? The flaps are supposed to on the top of the system when you put it in the stand.

Just Replug the console, I think that will help.

It's Wiiconnect24 that slows the console down.

if u have a lot of VC games then boot time slows down. its a pain (and hopefully ninty fix it with a firmware update if they can). basically the OS has to load more data in before it can show u the screen. its normal though. i noticed quite a difference with about 15 VC titles downloaded.

if u dont have alot though the try and remove the disc in the wii and see if that speeds it up. if it does then id return the wii for repairs. the disc drive could be whiffing of a certain citrus fruit.

You know you can remove those flaps, right? It is in the instruction manual and/or on the actual flaps how to.

MMM the flaps are the top of the wii along with the sd card flap. The wii fits in the stand with the flaps open. You are putting it in the wrong way.
